Hi everybody, new to the list. Recently acquired a Duo 230 w/dock and an Express Modem. And the modem is where the trouble started...
I installed the modem by replacing the 'power card', no problem. Connected the other part of the modem. Got the newest Express modem software that I could (Apple Telecom 3.0). Set up the modem in the Express Modem control panel. Chose "internal port" and "Geoport/Express Modem" script in the Modem Control Panel. And I can't get any reaction from the modem. I get a message that the modem could not detect a dial tone. But in reality the modem seems to be unable to connect to the line at all. I have a terminal that shows when a phone is picked up and it shows nothing when the modem starts dialing. Also auto-answer does not work. It seems the modem does not "see" the phone line at all. I tried throwing out all preferences, resetting PRAM, no chance. Nothing seems to work. I was wondering, perhaps the phone cable (from the modem, external part, to the phone outlet) for the Express Modem is wired differently than a normal phone cable? That, or the fact that the modem is broken, seems to me the only viable explanation of what's going on... -- tomasz 'tonid' nidecki, zoliborz, warszawa, poland mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://endemic.tonid.net http://mp3.com/tonid http://mp3.com/knownspace ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
