C ONNECT THE MODEM DIRECTLY TO THE TELEPHONE WALL JACK
U SE A DIFFERENT TELEPHONE LINE
• Verify that the telephone line is connected to the jack on the modem
(the jack has either a green label or a connector-shaped icon next to it).
• Ensure that you hear a click when you insert the telephone line connector
into the modem.
• Disconnect the telephone line from the modem and connect it to a
telephone, then listen for a dial tone.
• If you have other telephone devices sharing the line, such as an answering

and connect the modem directly to the telephone wall jack. If you are
using a line that is 3 m (10 ft) or more in length, try a shorter one.
