Connecting directly by modem
Using modems and a phone line, you can connect to another computer or to an office network. For a
direct, LapLink to LapLink connection, dial to a modem on another computer using Connect over Modem.
When you dial directly to another LapLink computer, and
open a remote control session, you have access to all the
programs and files available to that computer (including any
network resources if the computer is logged on to a net
-
work).
Before Connecting over a modem
• The LapLink security setup of the computer you are
connecting to must be changed to allow incoming con
-
nections. See”Allowing incoming connections .
Use Connect over Modem
to dial a modem on
another computer and
open a LapLink connection
to that computer.
Entries you have created
for modem connections in
the Address Book appear
in the connection list to
make connecting easier.
TIP For Best Results: Use only hard-
ware-based modems, such as external
(serial) modems. Most internal modems
are unreliable for LapLink connections. For
