My modem connection is slow.

Many factors influence modem connection speed:

❑Telephone line noise

❑Incompatibility with other telephone equipment such as fax machines or other modems.

❑Internet Service Providers (ISP) connection capability may vary.

If you think your modem is not connecting properly to other PC-based modems, fax machines, or your ISP, check the following:

❑Contact your phone company and ask them to verify that your phone line is free from line noise.

❑If your problem is fax-related, check that there are no problems with the fax machine you are calling and that it is compatible with fax modems.

❑For optimum performance, verify that your ISP point of presence (POP) phone number is compliant with V.90 standards.

❑If you are having a problem connecting with your ISP, check that they are not experiencing technical problems.

❑Try connecting your modem through another phone line, if available.

My modem does not work.

Your modem may be experiencing equipment or software conflicts. If your modem is not functioning properly, check the following:

❑Check that the phone line is working properly. You can verify the line by plugging in an external device such as a standard telephone or fax machine and listening for a dial tone.

❑Check that the access phone number (POP) is correct.

❑All software applications that are preinstalled by Sony are compatible with your computer’s modem. If you have installed other software, contact the software publisher for information on how to configure the software in order to recognize the modem.
