Required Equipment
In addition to the contents of your modem package, you need the following equipment.
Computer
Your modem can only be connected to a computer with a USB port.
Telephone Line
You must have a telephone line with jack (connector) that accepts the cable that comes
with the modem. If you do not have a telephone jack near your computer, you should
install one before proceeding.
Do-it-yourself telephone extension kits and accessories are available wherever
telephones are sold. You may also hire an independent contractor or your local telephone
company to install an extension. If you want a separate line for your fax modem, you
must contact your telephone company.
Communications Software
To operate your modem, you must have data communications and fax communications
software (included with the modem). Data communications software simplifies control of
the modem by guiding you through the process of selecting your serial port, your port
speed, and other variables, and then storing your settings, including frequently called
phone numbers, so they can be recalled with the stroke of a key or the click of a mouse.
Data communications software must be set up, or configured, before you can use it.
