Connecting your modem to a telephone line
Your computer comes with a built-in modem that can be
connected to a standard voice-grade telephone line.
The modem allows you to:
❖
Access the Internet.
❖
Communicate with your office's local area network
(LAN), or a larger corporate wide area network (WAN).
For specific information about connecting to a LAN or WAN,
consult your network administrator.
❖
Send a fax directly from your computer.
NOTE
Connecting to a phone line
Before you can communicate using the modem, you need to
connect it to a telephone line. Your computer's built-in
modem port provides an RJ-11 jack, allowing you to connect
the modem to a standard voice-grade telephone line.
