What you will need

You will need the following to install your U.S. Robotics 56K PC Card Modem:

• Notebook computer with an empty PC card slot

• Analog telephone line

Caution: The U.S. Robotics 56K PC Card Modem requires a standard

analog telephone line. Do not connect your modem to a digital

hotels. If you are unsure whether your line is analog or digital, ask your

network administrator, building management, or your local telephone

company.

Before You Begin: Preparing for installation

Note: U.S. Robotics recommends uninstalling any other modems that

are installed in your system and unplugging all telephone cords

connected to these modems. Refer to your previous modem's

documentation for instructions.

Write down your new modem's serial number, which is located on the white bar

code sticker on the modem and on the modem's box, in the space below. If you

ever need to call our Technical Support department, you will need the serial

number and the model number to receive assistance. If you need to get

assistance or download drivers from the Web site, you will need the product ID.

Installing the U.S. Robotics 56K PC Card Modem

Note: For computers that are running Windows NT 4.0, go to the section

entitled “Windows NT4.0 Installation” on page 6.

Step One: Install the modem.

Turn off your computer. Insert the modem into the PC card slot in your computer.

The top of the modem has an arrow indicating which end should be inserted into

the computer. Make sure that the modem is firmly seated in the PC card slot.

Step Two: Connect the phone cord.

• PC cards with model number USR0756-XJ

have an XJACK®connector. Push in on the

XJACK connector to pop it out of the PC

card. Connect one end of a standard RJ-11

phone cord to the XJACK connector and

the other end to an analog telephone wall

jack. Refer to this illustration:

• PC cards with model number USR0756-CB

do not have an XJACK connector and use

an RJ-11 jack-to-PC card connector cable.

Connect the PC card connector to the

modem and the RJ-11 connector to an

analog telephone wall jack. Refer to this

illustration:

• To connect to a telephone system outside North America, use an

adapter that is appropriate for the country you are in.

Step Three: Install the drivers.

Note: If at any time during the installation you are prompted to select

the location of your installation drivers, select the CD-ROM drive where

the Installation CD-ROM is loaded (D:\ for example).

Note: Windows 2000 and XP users must be logged in using an account

with administrative privileges before attempting to install the modem
