 When Modems and Voice Mail Don't Mix |
|
Q: My voice mail changes my dial tone when there are messages, but my modem doesn't recognise the changed tone. I must listen to my messages before I can go online. How can I fix this? Reggie Zeller A: Just tell your modem to stop listening for a dial tone. Open My Computer and double-click Dial-Up Networking. Right-click the icon for your dial-up connection and select Properties. On the General tab, click Configure and then click the Connection tab. Uncheck Wait for dial tone before dialing, click OK twice, and close the Dial-Up Networking window. - Lincoln Spector |
