Modem dont work · DIGIT-ARC

S

Hey my modem is not able to dial.
When i start dialing it is supposed to do "put-put-put" and keep doin it, but now the dialtone again comming up as soon as i dial A number. Im sure some thing is wrong with the modem.

I plugged my phone to the modems second line, and i was having the same trouble. i keep pressing numbers, and the phone does its "put-put-put" but the dialtone is always there and wont dial.

disable wait for dial tone in ur modem properties and try

S

No man, its dialing alright, but the Dial Tone stays there.

I had this problem when I'd not paid my phone bill

sorry abt that sniper
misunderstood the question
in this case ... temme if ur "wait for dial tone" is enabled or disabled
also temme if u use an EPABX system and need to dial a "0" or something to access ur line ...

try dialing same number by connecting telephone instrument instead of modem and check if it dials correctly.

"connecting telephone instrument instead of modem and check if it dials correctly"----Yes it does. but when i try to use my phone through the modem, i get the same problem. Its a hardware problem, some thing wrong with the modem. have to give it to the mistries. i wanted the know the exact problem.

BTW my telephone is free. Companys private network. So internet is free.

try to re-install ur modem

S

the problem is with ur dialtone!!

try switching to pulse mode rather than tone!!

to do this specify dialing rules and in that check pulse.

guess what sniper and i have in common??

FREE ISP!!!

even mine is company provided!! the good sweet Indian railways!! lol

I think you happened to change the Pulse Dialing to Tone Dialing.

if you're using Win XP, click on your internet connection, then click on Dialing Rules, when the window opens click on "Edit" and change the Tone dialing to Pulse dialing.

that should bring back the "put-put-put" that you used to hear.

see if this works.

Exactly. I was about to post this when I saw this last post. Change this setting and try it out again.
