Solving Travel Connection Problems

If you experience connection problems while using the modem
outside the country in which you purchased the tablet PC, the
following suggestions may be helpful.
Before changing any settings, you may want to write down your
current settings so you can quickly replace those settings when
you return home.
Check the Line
The modem requires an analog, not a digital, telephone line.
A line described as a PBX line is usually a digital line. A
telephone line described as a data line, fax machine line, modem
line, or standard telephone line is probably an analog line.
Check the Dialing Mode
Dial a few digits on the telephone, then listen for clicks or tones.
Clicks indicate that the telephone line supports pulse dialing;
tones indicate that the telephone line supports tone dialing. To set
the internal modem to support either pulse or tone dialing:
1. Select Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet
Connections category.
2. From the See Also menu in the left column of the window,
select Phone and Modem Options > Dialing Rules tab.
3. Select your location, then select the Edit button.
4. Select the Tone or Pulse radio button.
5. Select the OK button > OK button.
