If You Get an Error Message When Your Modem Tries to Dial
If you get a message informing you that your modem is unable to complete a dialup connection,
the message may be appearing because you are dialing from an area where an overlay area code
has been implemented. In such areas, even local calls require dialing the area code, or 1 + the area
code, before the 7-digit telephone number. If you are dialing from such an area, you need to
configure your dialup software to dial the area code, or 1 + the area code, before the 7-digit
number.
For instructions on how to do this, consult your dialup software's manual or online help. The same
instructions will also tell you how to configure your dialup software to dial a 9 or other number to
access an outside line (you may need to do this if, for instance, you are dialing from an office
building).
