* IMPORTANT! In accordance with the ITU-T standard for 56K transmissions (V.90), U.S. Robotics 56 Kbps

modems are capable of 56 Kbps downloads. However, due to FCC rules which restrict power output of service

providers, current download speeds are limited to 53 Kbps. Actual speeds may vary due to line conditions and

other factors. Uploads from users to server equipment travel at speeds up to 31.2 Kbps. An analog phone line

compatible with the V.90 standard or x2 technology and an Internet provider or corporate host site compatible

with the V.90 standard or x2 technology are necessary for these high-speed downloads.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

2-1

Running the Setup Wizard

The instructions for installing your Connections™CD-ROM

software are on the installation map included in your modem’s

box. If you have not completed this portion of your install, you

should do so now.

Using Connections Software

Once installation is complete, you can use the Connections CD

at any time by following these steps:

•Insert the Connections CD into your CD-ROM drive.

•If the CD is already in your drive, take it out and reinsert

it.

•If you have disabled AutoPlay, click Start, point to

Programs, point to 3Com U.S. Robotics, and click

Connections.

Installing the RapidComm™ Software

NOTE: If you have an older version of RapidComm

software on your system, uninstall it before continuing.

To start the uninstall, double-click the Add/Remove

Programs icon in the Control Panel. This will erase any

faxes you have in your inbox, and delete your phone/fax

lists. If you need to save them, copy them to a new

directory.

The Connections CD contains the RapidComm communications

software. RapidComm is used with standard modems;

RapidComm Voice is used with modems with voice

functionality.

Once you have installed the Connections program group, you

can install the RapidComm software. (The Setup Wizard does

not install RapidComm.)

Follow these instructions to install RapidComm:

1. Start the Connections CD (follow the instructions in the

section “Using Connections Software” on this page).

2. On the main Connections menu, click Software.

3. Click the Communications button.

4. Click the RapidComm (if you have a regular faxmodem) or

RapidComm Voice (if you have a voice faxmodem)

button.

5. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the installation.

NOTE: The CD also contains an electronic user

manual for RapidComm and RapidComm Voice.

Congratulations—you are now ready to

start using your U.S. Robotics modem!
