Well, guess I was fortunate regarding the dial-up modem, not noticing Dean's recommendation from before. For, what with already having the Socket CF modem, I put that in the PK and it was recognized right away. It said card inserted when I put it in the unit, and then it was readily visible as one of my choices of ways to connect when I went to set up the connection. The only problem I had, I caused myself. For, wanting to put in my entire dial-up number in case I want to use that modem when away from home, I can never seem to remember whether or not to put the one in front of the number. So, it took me two tries to find out that I did indeed need the one. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Isaac Obie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 10:42 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] dial up modems for the pocket bn
Tina, Dean jackson recommended the Pretec modem for dialup. I have that and I have an ambicom for wireless connection. I've used both and the Ambicom I have connected to a Starbucks public hot spot. I didn't do a thing. I was so shocked to be connected! <grin> I was low on battery power at the time as well. I've not done anything else since. Isaac On Wed, 23 Mar 2005, tina wrote: > Hi.
