Troubleshooting B-4

Try moving the telephone line away from any power source, monitor, printer or any

computer cable.

The PC Card cannot connect to the Internet at 56,000 bps.
This may be due to line conditions in your area. Due to FCC regulations and/or line

conditions, it is not always possible to achieve the maximum data rate.

To resolve this difficulty:

Try moving the telephone line away from any power source, monitor, printer or

computer cable.

The PC Card or communications software fails to detect that the remote

user has hung up.
The PC Card or communications software relies on the dial tone, busy tone or

silence period to detect that a remote user has hung up.

This detection may fail due to one of the following reasons:

• Your local telephone system does not generate the dial or busy tone when the

remote user hangs up.

• The silent period for the PC Card or communications software to detect that the

remote user has hung up is not long enough.

• The PC Card or communications software cannot detect a different dial or busy

tone. For example, if you are connecting to a PABX system, the dial or busy

tone generated is different from the usual dial or busy tone.

To resolve this difficulty:

Prompt the remote user to respond. This may, however, result in a long delay

before the communications software responds to the remote user hanging up. To

minimize this delay, modify the following settings:

• Voice message recording time.

• Number of prompts.

• Time to wait for a response after prompting.
