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.
Use the modem 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.

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 uses an RJ-11 jack to connect the modem to a
standard voice-grade telephone line.
Do not touch the SD connector. You could expose the storage
area to static electricity which can destroy data.
Do not remove media while data is being written or read. Even
when the Windows message "copying..." disappears, writing
to the media might still be in progress and your data could be
destroyed. Wait for the indicator light to go out.
