Trouble analysis
The model 2070-9xx is a fairly complex Modem with hundreds of parts. This makes
this Modem hard to trouble shoot for the average technician with limited experience.
It also requires special soldering tools to work with the surface mount parts. On the
other hand this modem is constructed with top quality parts and so you will not
experience many failures.
The chart on the next page will help find the problem if you decide to fix the model
400 yourself.
