There are some issues with modems using Rockwell and Lucent
Technologies ( LT ) chipsets. Such modems usually come standard with
IBM, Compaq, Hewlett Packard ( HP ), Packard Bell, and E-Machines computers.
To check to see if you modem is using a Rockwell or LT chip set, use
www.modemhelp.org or www.56k.com.
These sites will also give suggestions on how to fix connection speed
issues, disconnections, and non-connections. Our suggestion is to either
try a firmware/driver upgrade on the modem or place init strings in
the modem properties.
