Using the Modem
If your computer has a modem port, 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 PC to send and receive faxes. Your
computer 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 XP Fax Console or Windows 2000 fax software for sending and receiving
faxes
The modem is a high-speed 56-Kbps modem. 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.
Note that the maximum speed for faxing is 14.4 Kbps. Even though the modem is
capable of downloading at 56 Kbps, your ISP or modem network may not operate at this
speed or support this technology. Please check with your service provider for information
on its capabilities. Furthermore, download transmission rates depend on the condition of
the telephone line.
