Connecting to a phone line
Before you can communicate using the modem, you need to
connect it to a telephone line. Your computer’s built-in
modem provides an RJ11 jack.

into the modem port on the left-side of the computer.
Connecting the telephone cable to the modem port

Connecting to a wall jack
The modem is designed for use with a standard analog
telephone line. Never connect the modem to a digital
telephone line. A digital line will damage the modem.
Now you are ready to send a fax or use the modem to connect
to an online service or the Internet.
For more information on using a modem, see “Setting up for
communications” on page 148.
