I have an new HP Pavillion with a Lucent Modem running Win ME. No errors evident with the modem but the modem cannot get a dialtone. Is this a ME problem or a modem problem?

I would have to say it is a modem problem or phone line problem. Since it is a different modem it could be more sensitive to the phone line than your old modem and may not work. Or it could be that the modem is bad itself. I haven't had any modem problems with ME I have setup 3 computer and opened up a brand new one up and the modem always worked

I have had the same type of problem with Win ME and a Sportster 33.6 internal modem. When it tries to connect, the speaker just clicks a couple times, and then says the computer I'm trying to dial does not answer. However, when I set it up as a standard modem, it connects, but only at 9600. What's up with that?

some tips

I had the same "clicks a couple times, and then says the computer I'm trying to dial does not answer" problem with a US Robotics 56K INT modem. Swapped the modem for exactly the same model and the problem persisted. Worked around it by using the "Standard" modem drivers.

I have new pc with a hsp56 micro modem
and i'cant to established a connection on internet
What's the problem?

Try downloading the latest Lucent Win Modem driver - must be version 5.87 (available from 9th October 2000) - I too was having A LOT of trouble with my Lucent Win Modem after installing Windows ME - until that is I downloaded the version 5.87 of the driver and now my modem works like a dream!!!
The 5.87 version of the Lucent Winmodem driver is Microsoft WDM-compliant for Win98, 2000 & Me. I downloaded my driver from http://808hi.com/56k/ltwin7.htm

Whats up up with me I tried 3 modems nd none of them worked ..........I tried a cardnial 33.6 and it got no dial tone and the second modem i tried a motorola modem with new drivers and no luck there I'm looking for a new modem and the only brand that said ANYTHING ABout windows me was diamond supra ....I was wondering if there where any other brands that claim to ME compatable.......Please e-mail any ideas!!!!!

I'm having problems with WinME and my Smartlink V90 modem. Everything looks OK in the device manager, and it says modem is working properly, but any ISP dialup software says that there is no modem installed. Any ideas?

We have Windows Me, and a LucentWin Modem, I can't connect higher than 30,000 bps, I have tried everything, I called my ISP, had a new jack installed, new phone line. My brother has the same ISP and connect at least at 55,000 bps. What else could be the problem ? I need help :-) We have a Hewlett Packard, 766. Thank You :-)

I have a new PC with US Robotics Model 0766 model installed; suddenly it stopped working! I had to remove the modem and re-install it; while re-installing it looks for files like 3c1807vp.dll etc.. and can not find the files!
Could anyone help me??
Many thanks
