Region selection
Telecommunication regulations vary from one region to another, so you will
need to make sure the internal modem’s settings are correct for the region
in which it will be used.
To select a region, follow the steps as detailed below:
1. Click Start -> All Programs -> TOSHIBA -> Networking -> Modem
Region Select.
2. The Region Selection icon will appear in the Windows Taskbar.
3. Click the icon with the primary (left) mouse button to display a list of
regions that the modem supports, together with a sub-menu which
details telephony location information - a check mark will appear next to
the currently selected region and telephony location.
Connection to any communication line other than an analog phone line
could cause a computer system failure.
Connect the built-in modem only to ordinary analog phone lines.
Never connect the built-in modem to a digital line (ISDN).
Never connect the built-in modem to the digital connector on a
public telephone or to a digital private branch exchange (PBX).
Never connect the built-in modem to a key telephone system for
residences or offices.
Never operate your computer on AC power during a thunderstorm. If
you see lightning or hear thunder, immediately turn off the computer.
An electric surge caused by the storm, may result in a system failure,
loss of data or hardware damage.
Modem functions cannot be used in models which are not equipped
with a modem.
This information is applicable to the models equipped with a built-in
modem.
The built-in modem can be used only in specified countries and regions.
Using the modem in an area not specified for use may cause a system
failure. Check the specified areas carefully before using it.
If it is available, do not use the Country/Region Select function included as
part of the modem setup utility within the Control Panel - if you change the
country/region setting this way you may find that the change does not take
effect.
