My dial up doesnt work?

I get an error message that says the "remote model" is not working. I have AT%26T Worldnet service. Does this mean MY modem doesn%26#39;t work, or there is something wrong with the one it%26#39;s connecting to?



Answer:

Is your modem internal or external? External modems are generally more reliable (assuming you use a Serial cable connection rather then USB). What I would do first is go to Control Panel--%26gt;Phone and Modem Options--%26gt;Modems Tab--%26gt;Properties Button and find Diagnostics and click the Query Modem button and see if you get a response. If no response, you may have a driver issue or a problem with the modem. At this day in age, you should be considering DSL or cable internet as Dial-up is antiquated these days.
