Hello

I have been given a, what I believe is a US or European 33k Internet
Edition modem. After plugging it in I get a message from PPP "no dail
tone".

Also In the Teleport control panel it registers as an unknown modem. I
seem to remember that you have to put the right init string in before it
will recognise it, as I once set one up for a friend.

Having looked at the way the RJ11 is configured it looks like the cable
I have, which I took out of a USR mac&fax is setup to comnnect on pins
4,5,6,7 rather that 2,3,4 and 5.

1. Does anyone know modem init string for this model?

2. Could I get a cable that matches pins from our telephone system to
that of modem

I would appreciate any help

TIA

Tom
