2.Plug the opposite end of the cable 2 into a standard telephone wall jack.

IMPORTANT: Wall jacks for digital PBX systems may resemble standard telephone jacks but are not compatible with analog devices such as modems. Be sure the modem cable is connected to a regular analog phone line. Plugging the modem into a digital line will result in no dial tone and is not recommended. The modem includes protective circuitry against the digital lines producing excess current. A warning buzz will sound briefly when excessive current is detected during a call attempt, and the attempt is terminated with the phone line back on-hook.
