Re: Testing modems
You'll need either a paper manual for the modem, or a downloadable one. I think
you can download modem manuals from the USR or 3COM site.
After reading the manual, open a comm program. Programs for these are in the
communications tree of packages. Once you are able to type in "AT" <CR> and
get back "OK", you are communicating with the modem. Then you can alter
the registers and settings of the modem as specified in the manual.
