TOPIC
I am trying to log in to America Online (AOL) and am unable to locate a modem description for the Apple/GV 56K Flex modem that was bundled with my computer. How do I modify an existing modem description to work with the Apple/GV 56K Flex modem?
DISCUSSION
America Online is bundled with several Power Macintosh products that also include the Apple/GV 56K Flex modem. When the customer tries to configure AOL for use with this modem they will notice that the Apple/GV 56K Flex modem does not appear in the list of available modems.
Use the following steps to add the Apple/GV 56K Flex modem for use in AOL:
Step 1:
At the initial "Welcome" screen, pictured below, click the setup button.
Step 2:
To add the Apple/GV 56K Flex modem to the modem "Type" list, you will have to edit an existing modem profile. This is done by clicking the "Edit Modem Profile" button in the Setup screen of AOL, as pictured below.
Step 3:
Once you have selected "Edit Modem Profile" the screen below will appear. You will first need to select the "Create Copy As" button and name your new modem profile to "Apple/GV 56K Flex." Once the copy is created, use the values listed in the picture below to complete the new modem profile.
Step 4:
Once all of the values are in the correct areas, click the "OK" button to save the changes.
Step 5:
Now that the modem profile is complete, continue configuring AOL as outlined in the instructions.
