Hi: I have a brandnew MICRON PC with a Supra 288i Sp Internal Speakerphone Modem w/Voice Mail. It can connect my computer to online service,like CompuServe, but it seems a DUMB! When it is dialing, you can not hear ANY dial tones and hissing sound when it is success. You just do not know what is happening when you dail a number. I have called MICRON tech. support for sereral times and talked to 5 different people. Nobody knows how to solve this problem. They even sent me another brandnew modem, but the new one still works exactly the same way, another DUMB! I tried to reset the speaker volume for modem (in modem setting windows) to maximum and turn up my external sperkers (25 Watts each) to maximum. But It does not do any good. The modem still keeps silence. (by the way, is the modem suppose to use internal or external speakers?) I also tried to reinstalled the modem and the driver. No way. I am just very frustrated and do not know what else I can do. Do you know what causes this problem and how to solve it? I am running Windows 95 and have a Sound Blaster Wavetable AWE Sound Card (16 bit). The modem is a 28800 bps Full-Duplex Speakerphone Modem which has a integrated 16550 UART (w/16-Byte FIFO). Albo I tried to make a call by my computer. I could dial out but the modem was also silence. Any helpful info will be most appreciated.
