The modem might be defective. If you have another Multi-Tech mo-

The Modem Dials But Cannot Connect
There can be several reasons the ZDX fails to make a connection.
Possibilities include:
• lack of a physical connection to the telephone line.
• a wrong dial tone.
• a busy signal.
• a wrong number.
• no modem at the other end.
• a faulty modem, computer, or software at the other end.
• incompatibility between modems.
You can narrow the list of possibilities by using extended result codes.

mode enter ATV1X4 and press ENTER. When you dial again, the mo-
dem will report the call’s progress.

listen for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, your modem might be

dial tone that sounds different from the normal dial tone. In that
case, the modem might not recognize the dial tone and might treat it
