Using Apple Remote Access with a PC Card modem

Apple Remote Access uses modem files (sometimes called connection scripts
or CCLs) to get the best performance from some modems. Follow these steps
to select your modem file:

1

Insert your PC Card modem.

2

Open the ARA application program.

3

Open Remote Access Setup.

The following screen appears:

4

Choose your modem from the Modem pop-up menu.

If your PC Card modem is not listed, check in the ARA Connection Files
folder (inside the PC Card Modem Files folder in the Apple Extras folder on
your hard disk). If the file for your modem appears, drag it to the Extensions
folder (inside the System Folder). If the file for your modem is not listed, try
using an existing modem file from the pop-up menu (such as a different
model from the same manufacturer). If this doesn’t help, you may need to get
a connection script from your PC Card modem’s manufacturer.

5

Choose the port that your PC Card modem is in.

You should see either upper or lower PC Card slot listed. If you don’t, make
sure your modem is properly inserted.

If you even insert the PC Card modem in the other slot, you need to reselect
the modem port.
