Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Actiontec 56K USB Call Waiting Modem. Com-
bining proven 56K technology with the hot-swap capabilities of a USB periph-
eral, Actiontec provides you with an easy-to-use enhancement to your on-line com-
munications.
The Call Waiting feature of this modem allows you to be surfing the Web and
receive notification of an incoming call. Now you will not have to miss that call.
When a call comes in while the modem is using the line, the modem will ring, just
like your phone would have normally. You can pick up the phone to quickly screen
the incoming call. This suspends your internet connection, rather than ending it.
You can then either stay on the phone talking or hang up to get back to surfing the
Web. (Requires that Call Waiting Service is available in your area and purchased
by you from your phone company.)
The Actiontec 56K USB Call Waiting Modem connects to your computer’s USB
port. This allows you to “hot-swap” or install and uninstall the modem without
restarting your computer each time. The USB connection also gives the modem
its power. This eliminates the need for an external power supply.
The combination of USB hot-swapping with the Call Waiting feature makes the
innovative Actiontec 56K USB Call Waiting Modem a highly versatile personal
communications tool.
