I use a cf 56k modem with my e200 (and this is the case with my 720 also) and use a noname local provider, and I connect just fine with the number that they gave me to use for my desktop. I never heard of such nonsence where win ce needed a specail number.

lol calm down there david.

[Mike Bannick]

Oh rob what noname provider are you using?

[Mike Bannick]

Ok maybe this is why. I have a t before my number. I dont know what that one is, i know g is number, e is country code, and f is area code. But i dont know what the hell t is

Hehe thank you.

[Mike Bannick]

damn it I dont know what im doing wrong but it still isnt working. I followed your instructions word for word. That damn t keeps showing up too

T just means tone.

Try a different number.

What error are you getting when it dials?

[David Horn]

Have you tried changing the phone cable?

[Robby]

i think i know the problem. when it dialls, is it just dialling the number, or is it putting extra numbers on the front? if it is, go to dialling rules and tell it to just diall "g" for each number, and then tap in the full number with the area code and everything.
thats what i do, my ppcs always trys to use american code structures and stuff, useless.

[Jaybot]

i think we've already gone over that.

what mike needs to do is pick up another phone while its dialing, to hear what it is really doing.

you know what a modem call should sound like; and if you hear it dialing 2 billion digits, then you know the problem.

it may be the modem itself. stranger things have happened.
