If there is no dial tone, then the problem is in your telephone cable or telephone system. Call your telephone service provider for assistance. If there is a dial tone, reconnect the cable to the modem and verify that the telephone cord is securely connected to the modem and phone jack. 2. Make sure you are connecting the modem into an analog phone line. The modem will not work with a digital phone line. 3.
