Modem Not Present
« on: August 30, 2007, 05:54:43 PM »
Yep, me again. :D Ok, when I tried to connect to the internet, it says the modem was not detected. So I look into the Phone and Modem Options and it says that my modem is not present. How do I fix it? I have an external modem or a modem connected to my computer.

    I have an external modem or a modem connected to my computer.

    More details are needed. What type of modem. How does it connect to your computer ? USB cable? What version of windows are you using?

    Has you used this computer to connect to the internet before and it has stopped working or is it a new connection you are making?

    Please remember that we cannot see your computer, you have to give us as much detail as possible.

    Re-install the modem drivers...
    Afterwards check in Device Manager to make sure it is there.
    Then run the modem setup to enter the phone # etc.
