Appendix B: Modem information

  
You can perform common modem functions such as dialing,
file transfer, and faxing using the modem communications
software that came with your computer. For information
about configuring communications software, see
"Configuring your communications software" on page 4-9.
It is still possible for you to perform the basic modem
functions using the AT commands from the Windows 98
DOS box prompt. A list and description of all the AT
commands appear in the section "AT commands"
We strongly recommend, however, that you perform all
modem operations through the modem communications
software since it is designed to eliminate the inconvenience
of using the AT commands. Modem software allows you to
operate the modem by simply selecting command items
from onscreen menus.
Most modem communications software programs also
Note:
allow you to send specific AT commands to the modem.
