Make sure you connect the internal modem to an analog phone line—the kind used typically in homes. The modem will not work with a digital phone line.

Warning: Do not connect a digital telephone line to the modem; the wrong

type of line could damage the modem. Contact your telephone service provider if you are unsure whether you have a digital telephone line.

For more information about your modem, see “Using Your Modem” on page 40. For information on other types of connections, see Appendix C, “Connecting to the Internet,” on page 73.
