AOL 4.0 and other non-CAPI 2.0-compliant AOL access software

AOL 4.0 or a non-CAPI 2.0-compliant AOL access software version may only detect modems assigned to COM ports 1 to 4. It is strongly recommended that you configure cFos to use COM4.

Note: The screen shots in this section may vary somewhat from the user interface you see on your screen.

Before you can use AOL 4.0 or any non-CAPI 2.0-compliant AOL access software, you must configure cFos for use with it by installing either the “cFos ISDN, X.75, Defaults, Mailbox Settings” or the “cFos ISDN, CompuServe” modem emulation on either COM3 or COM4.

When you perform a fresh installation of the AOL 4.0 access software or a non- CAPI 2.0-compliant AOL dialer software, or when you reconfigure the already installed AOL dialer, select the option to Begin automatic setup. The AOL software then searches for an installed modem. When the search is completed, AOL announces it has found a modem as illustrated below.

Click the Next button to use AOL with the selected modem.

Note:

Please contact your local AOL help desk if AOL does not detect your modem correctly.

CAPI 2.0-compliant AOL 5.0 and higher without cFos installed

In some countries, such as Germany and the UK, AOL ships its AOL 5.0 access software in a version designed for CAPI 2.0. When you install AOL 5.0, it automatically installs an OEM version of cFos which is then used only by AOL 5.0.
