Hello. Below is the description of my internal modem, taken from the
"System Profile" on my iBook G4. Please note that the country is US or
Latin America. I am trying to use it in Italy and am having lots of
problems. Usually I don't get any sound, even though I've asked for it,
though sometimes I do. Most often it doesn't dial, but occasionally it
does. The one semi-successful test fax transmitted only the cover page.
I've told it not to wait for any dial tone, and this is not a pulse
phone. Am I wasting my time with a modem that shouldn't work here, or
is this likely a software problem or what? Any suggestions will be much
appreciated. Thanks!

Driver:    MotorolaSM56K.kext (v1.2.0)
Hardware Version:    Version 1.0
Interface Type:    I2S
Country:    B5 (United States, Latin America)
Modem Model:    Jump
Modulation:    V.92

I just resolved the problem -- or it resolved itself -- after
restarting. Sorry for my idiocy!

Think it was on OS9 CD.
Modem Country Selector is used to configure the computer's modem to the
correct country in which the computer will be used.
