Now connect the modem to the telephone line. How you
do this depends on whether you plan to connect your tele¬
phone to the modem, or whether you plan to bypass the
telephone (which requires disconnecting it). Unless you
want to use your telephone wall jack exclusively for the
modem, you should connect your telephone to the modem.
If you want to connect your telephone to the modem, follow
these steps:
• Plug the single connector end of the "Y" adapter into the
telephone line jack on the back of the modem. This leaves
two identical connectors available for modular phone plugs
• Unplug the telephone cable from its wall jack and plug it into
one of the connectors on the "Y" adapter.
• Plug one end of a modular phone cable into the free con¬
nector on the "Y" adapter.
• Plug the other end of the modular phone cable into the
telephone wall jack.
• Pick up the .telephone handset and listen for a dial tone. If
you can't hear it, check the connections you made then
try again.
