U.S. Regulations Governing the Use of Modems

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. Located on the
Modem is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC
Registration Number and Ringer Equivalent Number (REN) for this
equipment. Upon request, you must provide this information to your
telephone company.

The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most, but not all, areas the sum of the
RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your telephone
line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone
company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area. The REN
for this device is 0.7B.

If your telephone equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible,
they will notify you in advance. But, if advance notice is not practical, you
will be notified as soon as possible. You will also be informed of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC.

Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your
equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an
opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service.

If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, contact your local
telephone company for information on obtaining service or repairs. The
telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the
network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that the
equipment is not malfunctioning.

This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the
telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state
tariffs.Canadian Regulations Governing the Use of Modems
