The telephone wire used to connect the Notebook PC’s internal mo-

dem should have either two or four wires (only two wires (telephone

line #1) is used by the modem) and should have an RJ-11 connector

to an analog telephone wall socket (the ones found in residential

buildings). Once the driver is setup, the modem is ready to use.
