Phone Line

Connecting to the Internet usually requires a modem, which
is built into the AcerBasic. A phone line jack, found at the
rear of the unit, connects to your phone line. You can also
connect a telephone set to the phone set jack.
Your modem has been designed to work with an analog
telephone line like the ones commonly found in your home.
Connecting your modem to a digital phone system or a PBX
(Private Branch Exchange) system, like the ones found in
large establishments and office complexes, can cause
damage to your modem.
Before using the modem, make sure you are connecting an
analog telephone line. Check with the your telephone
company or office where you can connect to an analog line.
