• Dials a 7 digit number in less than 2 seconds then gets off the line, so pick up the phone as you dial from Address Book or the line will drop.

• If the modem stays on line too long, you may not be able to speak to your party or the modem may put its carrier on line in response to the voice reply. To avoid this, set the modem to hang up after one ring.
