6. Installing the PPP modem

Connecting the modem

The PPP connection (port B) to the hub is made using a US robotics 5630D

modem.

1. Plug the modem into the serial port of a PC using the serial interface cable

provided with the modem. Use an adapter if the PC does not have a serial

port. (See Appendix 3: RS232 cable pin-outs for connecting the modem to

the hub (page 81) for details of cable pin-outs).

2. Install the US Robotics software onto the PC, from the CD provided with the

modem.

3. After installation, locate the software in the programs menu on the PC and

start.

The software automatically detects if the modem is connected.

Click the configuration manager and go to the call control tab.
