Using the Modem
You can connect your modem to a telephone line and communicate with other
computers throughout the world. You can explore the Internet, send and receive
e-mail messages, and use your notebook to send and receive faxes. Your notebook
contains several software programs that work with your modem:
•
Internet Explorer, for browsing the World Wide Web
•
Outlook Express, for sending and receiving e-mail messages
•
Windows Fax Console software for sending and receiving faxes
For best performance, you can connect to any Internet Service Provider (ISP) or
modem network that has V.90 or V.92 interoperable modems. Check with your
ISP for a list of telephone numbers that support V.90 or V.92. (V.92 enables modem
on-hold technology that allows an Internet session to be interrupted to answer a
phone call, then resumes the Internet session once the call is complete.)
The maximum speed for faxing is 14.4 Kbps, even though the modem is capable of
downloading at higher speeds.
