Troubleshooting
Having trouble with your mo em? Try
these basic troubleshooting steps first!
1. Make sure that your phone cord is properly connected. Remove
the phone cord from the modem and wall jacks. Clean any dirt or
corrosion from the cord and jacks. Reinsert the cord securely in
the wall jack and the modem’s jack. Use the phone cord
included with your modem, if possible.
2. Make sure that your internal modem is physically installed cor-
rectly in your computer. You will need to press the modem in firmly
so that it is seated properly in its slot. When the modem is in-
stalled correctly, you will no longer see any part of the gold edge.
See the front of this Guide for complete instructions. If your mo-
dem still does not work, you may need to remove it and reinstall it
in another available slot.
PROBLEM:
My computer isn’t recognizing my modem.
Win ows 95/98
IfPlug-and-Play fails to find themodem as new hardware, you need
to check the following:
• Confirm that the modem is firmly seated in the PCI slot. The
modem should sit evenly in the slot with no part of the gold edge
showing.
• Try installing the modem in another PCI slot.
• Check your computer manual to make sure that the PCI slot is
configuredproperly.
Win ows NT
This version of Microsoft windows doesn’t support Plug and Play.
Themodem will not be found asnew hardware.
PROBLEM:
My modem seemed to install correctly but won’t
work.
Possible solution:
You may be using an IRQ that is already in use. To work properly,
your modem needs to be assigned to a free IRQ.
Win ows 95/98
If Plug-and-Play fails to install the modem, you need to determine
IRQ availability. Right-click the My Computer icon on your desktop.
Click Properties,and then the Device Manager tab.Double-clickthe
ComputComput
ComputComput
Computer er
er er
er icon at the top of the device list. You will see a listing of
your system’s IRQs and the devices to which they are assigned. If
an IRQ is not present in this list, it indicates that Windows is not
currentlyusing it, and theIRQ is considered available.
Locate your modem in the list of devices. If a yellow exclamation
pointappears over the modem’s description, your modem is incon-
flict with another device. Either your modem or the other device will
havetobe reinstalled to another IRQ in order toresolveyourconflict.
If a usable, free IRQ does not exist, you may need to remove, dis-
able, or relocate another device. Refer to that device’s documenta-
tionfor more information about removing, disabling, or relocating it.
IfWindowsstill fails to recognize your modemand it does not have a
yellow exclamation point next to its IRQ, or if your modem doesn’t
appearin the list, another problemexists. You may need to call U.S.
RoboticsTechnicalSupport.
Win ows NT
Turn off your computer and physically remove the modem. Restart
yourcomputer,andcheckforan available IRQ byclicking Windows
Start, Programs, A ministrative Tools, and Win ows NT Diagnos-
tics. Click the ReRe

s tab and select IRQ. Take note of an avail-
able IRQ that your modem can use. If there are no IRQs available,
youmayhaveto remove, disable, or relocate another device inorder
to free an IRQ for use by your modem. Refer to that device’s docu-
mentationformoreinformationabout removing, disabling, or relocat-
ing it.
PROBLEM:
My so tware isn’t recognizing my modem.
Possible solution:
Yourcommunicationssoftware may not function properly if youhave
more than one version of the software installed, you are using an
older version, or you have more than one communications
applicationinstalledon your system. We highly recommend
usingthe communications software provided withyour mo-
demon the Connections
TMCD-ROM.
Possible solution:
Yoursoftware’sCOM port settings may beincorrect or may
not have the correct modem type selected.
Win ows 95/98
TheU.S. Robotics 56K Fax PCImodem will install on COM
5onlyinWindows95andWindows98andcannotbemoved
to another COM port. To confirm that the modem installed
on COM 5, click Windows Start, Settings, and Control
Panel. Double-click Mo ems, select your modem, and se-
lect Properties.
Checkyourcommunicationsoftware’sdocumentationforin-
structions on adjusting the port settings in your software.
Win ows-base non-TAPI Compliant Software:
Someoldersoftware programs require you to select aCOM
port manually. This software may not recognize COM 5,
which is the only COM port that this modem can be
installated on. To reconcile this discrepancy, when the mo-
dem is installed, DOS Box Support is also installed auto-
matically. As long as the non-TAPIsoftwareisconfiguredto
COM 4, DOS Box Support will automatically enable the
software to find the modem on COM 5.
AOL 3.0 an above:
Ifyou are using AOL 3.0or above, click Setup then A and
change the modem device. The AOL software will take a
few minutes to go through the process of identifying which
port the modem is located on and DOS Box Support will
direct AOL automatically to COM 4 . While AOL is going
through this process, a message “searching for a way for
you to connect”will be displayed.
Dial-Up Networking:
If you are using Dial-Up Networking, it may not be config-
uredcorrectly. Check your configuration and make sureyou
have the correct modem selected. Double-click My Com-
puter,double-clickDial-Up Networking, right-click the icon
for the connection you are trying to use, and click Proper-
ties. Make sure that the description in the modem box
matches the description of the modem you are using. If it
doesn’t match, select the proper modem description. You
can select your new modem by selecting the General tab
andhighlightingyournew modem in the Connect using box.
Click OK.
PROBLEM:
My modem won’t dial out or doesn’t an-
swer incoming calls.
FOR BOTH DIALING AND ANSWERING PROBLEMS:
Possible solution:
Youmayhaveabad phone cord connection to your modem,
oryourphonecord may be plugged into the wrong jack.The
phone cord should be plugged into the jack on the mo-
dem and into the wall phone jack. Use the phone cord in-
cluded in your modem’s box if possible.
Possible solution:
Youmay have devices betweenthe modem and thephone
jack. There should be no line splitters, fax machines, or
otherdevices between the modemand the wall jack.
OFFICE USERS:
Possible solution:
You may have plugged your modem’s phone cord into a
digital line. Contact the department responsible for your
phone system if you are unsure whether or not your phone
line is digital.
If your phone system requires dialing “9”to access an out-
sideline, be sure to add“9”before the number you aredial-
ing.
VOICE MAIL USERS:
Possible solution:
Ifyou have voice mailprovided by your local phone company,
your dial tone may be altered when messages are waiting.
Retrieveyour voice mail to restoreyour normal dial tone.
PROBLEM:
My modem sounds like it’s trying to con-
nect to another modem but ails.
Possible solution:
You may have a poor connection. All calls are routed differ-
ently, so try placing the call again. Also, try a different access
number,ifpossible.
PROBLEM:
My modem isn’t achieving a 56K Internet
connection.
Note: Due to current FCC regulations, maximum download
speed is limited to 53,333 bps.
Our research has shown that the vast majority of telephone
lines in North America can and do support V.90 connections.
The V.90 protocol allows for connection speeds of up to 56K,
butline conditions may affect the actual speedsduring a given
connection.Duetounusualtelephonelineconfigurations,some
userswill not be able to takefull advantage of V.90technology
at this time. In order to achieve a V.90 connection:
•The server you’re dialing in to must support and provide a
digital V.90 signal. Your ISP can provide you with a list of
dial-upconnections and information on what those connec-
tionscurrently support.
•Thetelephonelinebetween your ISP and your modem must
becapableof supporting a 56K connection and containonly
oneanalog-to-digital conversion. The 56K signal from your
ISPbegins as a digital signal. Somewherebetween the ISP
andyourmodem,therewill be a digital-to-analog signal con-
versionsothatyourmodemcanreceivethedata.Theremust
be no more than one analog-to-digital signal conversion in
the path from your ISP to your modem. If more than one
analog-to-digitalconversionoccurs,yourconnectspeedswill
defaultto V.34 (33.6 Kbps). There mayalso be impairments
onthelocallines between your ISP and your modem. These
impairments can prevent or limit V.90 connection speeds.
All telephone calls are routed differently, so you should try
makingyour 56K connection several times. Oneway to test
this is to dial into a long distance location. Long distance
lines are often much clearer than local lines. It is important
tonote that telephone companies are constantly upgrading
their systems. Lines that do not support 56K today may
support56K in the near future.
•Your modem must be connecting to a V.90/56K server. A
pair of 56K modems will not connect to each other at V.90/
56Kspeeds.
