Extra Modem Settings A-C for Connecting to MSN

Last reviewed: November 6, 1997
Article ID: Q175186

The information in this article applies to:

  • The Microsoft Network, versions 1.0, 1.05, 1.2, 1.3, 2.0, 2.5

SUMMARY

You may be unable to connect, or have difficulty remaining connected to MSN, The Microsoft Network. Some modems may require extra settings or specific configurations to connect to MSN.

The following table lists extra modem settings and configurations that may help specific modems connect to MSN.

NOTE: Rockwell settings may work for any modem that uses the Rockwell chipset, including Boca, Zoltrix, and Zoom 14.4 modems.

  • UARTless Boca Modems: Some of the Boca modems use software drivers. Due to the lack of a UART chip, you must contact the modem manufacturer to obtain the proper drivers.
