I have installed the modem, RAS, Point to Point Tunneling and I can not get any modem to work on any NT server in my environment. I am going nuts trying to figure this out. What am I missing?

If it's a US Robotics modem, then there's a special program from USR you have to run to add it to your Control Panel.

Also, I don't believe that USR internal modems (especially Sportsters) are supported by MS.

I dealt with this mess a couple of years back, and the only way I got it to work was with the USR program

Good Luck!

Try installing the modem as a Standard 288000 kbs modem. If you're worried about the 28.8 speed, NT RAS won't operate faster than that anyway.

Is this an ISA modem? If so you may need to install the PNPISA.inf file for NT to recognize it. This file is located under the i386\drvlib\pnpisa right click on the file and choose install, reboot and see if NT will detect it now.
