I have the Supra Max 56i modem in Win 98SE, I have not been able to get it to work. I also get a "no dial tone" message. I have updated drivers, the phone lines are ok. The diagnostics tests return a response. But, I cannot get it to dial out to connect to Internet. All my settings for the connection are correct also. I have tried a different modem and that one will not work either, although I get different error messages on that one. I would really like to get the SupraMax to work. Is there a setting somewhere that I may have missed? I really need some help on this one.

Some simple advice
1) if you are using com port modem, better to connect it to com 2. (from my experience)
2) Check your telephone cable have two wire or four wire, mostly two wire telephone cable is suitable for modem but four wire one may have no dialtone problem.
3) Is that you are trying to connect to internet by modem through PBX system? maybe you have to set the modem not to detect dialtone first as the dialtone from PBX may not be standard. (or have to dial 9 first)
