If you are using the dial-up modem USB dongle, make
sure that the modem cable is plugged into the modem
jack on the dongle and not the Ethernet network jack on
the power module.
Make sure that your computer is connected to the
telephone line and the telephone line has a dial tone.
Make sure that the modem cable is less than 6 feet
(1.8 meters) long. The longer the cable, the more static
may be on the line.
Remove any line splitters or surge protectors from your
telephone line, then check for a dial tone by plugging a
working telephone into the telephone wall jack.
If you have additional telephone services such as call
waiting, call messaging, or voice mail, make sure that all
messages are cleared and call waiting is disabled before
using the modem. Contact your telephone service to get
the correct code to temporarily disable the service. Also
make sure that the modem dialing properties are set
correctly.
