Modem Dialling

[Amelie]

Hi,

Would anyone be able to tell me how to stop my modem waiting for a dial tone or stop it from making that annoying dialling noise when it tries to connect?

Thanks.......

Okay go to Device Manager through Control Panel > System

Then find your modem under the Modems category.

Then double click on it.

Then go to the modem tab. There should be an option "Wait for dial tone before dialing". And on that same page, there should be a slider for the speaker volume. You can slide it all the way to off. That should solve both your problems.

Hi, OracleGuy, thanks for your reply...

I did try what you said and it did not work, but since found that I
had to alter my connection setting as well and disable the modem speaker entirely...:-)

Anyway thanks alot,
