Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

Problems with

Your Modem

If you have a technical problem with this product, you may wish to consult our self-help tool

“Knowledgebase” for on-line troubleshooting and solutions (www.europe.creative.com/

support)

This appendix provides tips and solutions for resolving some of the problems you might encounter with

Creative Modem Blaster V.92 External DE5721 either during installation or normal use.

The modem fails to accept commands to dial or answer a call.

There may be an improper telephone line connection.

Check the following:

❑ Make sure the telephone cable is attached to the Telephone Line Jack.

❑ Check that all devices are turned on.

There is interference on the telephone line that is connected to the modem.

To solve this problem:

Try moving the telephone line away from any power source, monitor, printer or any computer cable.

The modem cannot connect to the Internet at 56,000 bps.

This may be due to line conditions in your area. Due to FCC regulations and/or line conditions, it is not always possible to achieve the maximum data rate.

To solve this problem:

Try moving the telephone line away from any power source, monitor, printer or computer cable.

Troubleshooting B-1

The modem or communications software fails to detect that the remote user has hung up.

The modem or communications software relies on the dial tone, busy tone or silence period to detect that a remote user has hung up.

This detection may fail due to one of the following reasons:

❑ Your local telephone system does not generate the dial or busy tone when the remote user hangs up.

❑ The silent period for the modem or communications software to detect that the remote user has hung up is not long enough.

❑ The modem or communications software cannot detect a different dial or busy tone. For example, if you are connecting to a PABX system, the dial or busy tone generated is different from the usual dial or busy tone.

To solve this problem:

Prompt the remote user to respond. This may, however, result in a long delay before the communications software responds to the remote user hanging up. To minimize this delay, modify the following settings:

❑ Voice message recording time.

❑ Number of prompts.

❑ Time to wait for a response after prompting.

Resolving Hardware

Conflicts

Hardware conflicts may occur when two or more peripheral devices are set to use the same I/O address,

IRQ line or DMA channel.

To resolve conflicts in Windows 98SE, Windows 2000, Windows Me or Windows XP, change the resource settings of your modem or the conflicting peripheral device using Device Manager.

Troubleshooting B-2

Resolving Conflicts in Windows

98SE/ME

If you are unsure of which peripheral device is causing the conflict, you can isolate the source of the problem by temporarily removing all devices (except your modem and essential devices such as the disk controller). After that, add the devices back one at a time until the device that is causing the conflict is found.

To run Device Manager:

1.

Click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel.

2.

Click the System icon. The System Properties dialogue box appears.

3.

Click the Device Manager tab.

4.

Double-click Modem.

5.

Select your modem and click the Properties button. The Properties dialogue box of the modem appears.

6.

Click the Resources tab.

7.

Click the Use Automatic Settings check box to select it. If this check box is already selected, you need to go to the Properties dialogue box of the conflicting peripheral device and select the same check box there.

8.

Restart your system to allow Windows 98SE/Me to reassign resources to your modem and/or the conflicting peripheral device.
