Actiontec electronic PCMCIA manual Installing the Modem

3 Installing the Modem

The Modem comes with its own dedicated phone cable. This cable has a standard RJ-11 connector on one end for the phone line, and a special connector that fits into the Modem on the other end. Insert the cable into the Modem, as shown in the figure, below.

MCaution: Be careful not to push the computer against anything when the cable is in place. This may bend the connector and damage the pins. Keep the area around the com-

puter clear, so the computer can move freely without damaging the cable or connector.

Next, go to chapter 4, “Installing the Driver Software,” to load the software used by the Modem onto the computer.
