Connecting to a phone line

Before you can communicate using the modem, you need to
connect it to a telephone line. Your computer’s built-in modem
port provides an RJ11 jack, allowing you to connect the modem to
a standard voice-grade telephone line.

Plug one end of the telephone cable into the modem port on
the back of the computer.

CAUTION: The modem is designed for use with a standard
analog telephone line. Don’t connect the modem to a digital
