Start with the most obvious question first. Is the telephone cable
connected to the modem correctly? The cable from the wall goes to LINE,
the cable to a telephone (if any) goes to PHONE.

If that is not the problem, try going to Control Panel --> Modems -->
Diagnostics. There should be a "Query Modem" button. It should do
something for a few seconds and then spit a bunch of data at you. Don't
worry too much about what the data says... if you get this data, then it
"should" be working. An error would say something like "COM port is
already in use".

If it passes that, and you can plug a phone into the other jack
and hear a tone, then the modem is toast.

Already returned it for refund. Was U.S. Robotics Model: USR5699B.
Even called their tech support, he talked me through the basic checks.
Have previously used ISA type, am wondering if PCI is problem. Could a
BIOS setting effect this? Might have changed something, poking around.
If the matters, also use AGP graphics card and do know i can't use
slot 1 PCI.
I assume others are using PCI modems in this board uneventfully. If
so, which brand/model. I really would like to update to V.92 standard.
Also this 33.6, my backup, is sloooow.

thanks
