Troubleshooting
This appendix provides tips and solutions for resolving some of the problems you
might encounter with Broadxent DSI V.92 PCI DI3631 either during installation or
normal use.
The modem fails to accept commands to dial or answer a call.
Problems with
Your Modem
There may be an improper telephone line connection.
Check the following:
❑ Make sure the telephone cable is attached to the Telephone Line jack.
❑ Check that all devices are turned on.
There is interference on the telephone line that is connected to the modem.
To solve this problem:
Try moving the telephone line away from any power source, monitor, printer or any
computer cable.
Troubleshooting B-1
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The modem cannot connect to the Internet at 56,000 bps.
This may be due to line conditions in your area. Due to FCC regulations and/or line
conditions, it is not always possible to achieve the maximum data rate.
To solve this problem:
Try moving the telephone line away from any power source, monitor, printer or
computer cable.
The modem or communications software fails to detect that the remote user has
hung up.
The modem or communications software relies on the dial tone, busy tone or silence
period to detect that a remote user has hung up.
This detection may fail due to one of the following reasons:
❑ Your local telephone system does not generate the dial or busy tone when the
remote user hangs up.
❑ The silent period for the modem or communications software to detect that the
remote user has hung up is not long enough.
❑ The modem or communications software cannot detect a different dial or busy
tone. For example, if you are connecting to a PABX system, the dial or busy tone
generated is different from the usual dial or busy tone.
To solve this problem:
Prompt the remote user to respond.This may, however, result in a long delay before
the communications software responds to the remote user hanging up. To minimize

Poor sound quality when using communications software.
Some 32-bit sound and communications software require a Unimodem V file.
Windows 95 normally installs this file. However, in some installations, the file is
missing.
Follow these steps to install the Unimodem V file:
2. Locate the Download Drivers section.
3. Select your region and operating system.
4. Download the Unimodem V file.
5. Start Windows Explorer.
6. Copy the file UNIMODV.EXE to your Windows\System directory.
7. Locate and double-click the file UNIMODV.EXE to run it.
8. Restart your computer.
No dial tone when using the modem.
The IRQ of the modem is either in conflict with another device or is mis-reported in
Windows.
To solve this problem:
Many chipsets have IRQ routing drivers for Windows. If you have an internal
modem, and these drivers do not work or do not exist on your system, changing the
slot of the modem card may help.

Hardware conflicts may occur when two or more peripheral devices are set to use
the same I/O address, IRQ line or DMA channel.

To resolve conflicts in Windows 95, Windows 98/98SE, Windows 2000, Windows Me
or Windows XP, change the resource settings of your modem or the conflicting
peripheral device using Device Manager.

the disk controller). After
that, add the devices back
one at a time until the device
that is causing the conflict is
found.
6. Click the Resources tab.
7. Click the Use Automatic Settings check box to select it. If this check box is
already selected, you need to go to the Properties dialog box of the conflicting
