your modem is working. Once you have determined that your modem
is setup properly, go on to

Software

problems, see
Section 3 Troubleshooting

Control Panel
.
When the
Control Panel
window opens. Scroll down to the
Modem
icon and double click on it. Click on the
Diagnostics
tab and highlight
the COM port for your modem. Then click on
More Info
, your
computer will automatically communicate with your new modem
using AT commands and receiving responses from your modem. A list
of response means the modem is setup properly.
Install Communication Software
You can install the communication software (e.g. Modem On Hold..)
from the included CD-ROM Disk. Please refer the software manual
in the CD-ROM disc for the detail installation.
Please be advised that your modem was designed and tested for using
a wide range of communications software packages. There is no
necessary to use the included communication software. Many
communication applications recognize and configure the modem
automatically. Some of the communication applications will ask you
to select the type of modem you are using. Select a
Generic Fax
class 1 modem
will let you use basic communication and fax
functions.
