Iam having a problem with the above modem in a Compaq
Prosario 2100 notebook computer that I am desperatly
seeking help with. The computer is based in an area code
404. While I am in the 404 area code the modem works fine.
When I take the computer to any area code other than the
404 area code, it sends a bastardized data steam that the
local telephone exchange can not interperet and I get a
canned recording saying the number is invalid in this area
code. I have tried changing dial properties,and not using
dial properties, all to no avail. I can not accept that I
am the only one to encounter this problem. If anyone has
any insight into this I would appreciate hearing from you.
..

Are you sure that the numerical string that the modem is dialing is in fact
a valid string to dial?
