Macintosh Portable: Modem Ring Detect Problem and Workaround



I have a Macintosh Portable. I experienced problems using the internal
modem when the Portable's Ring Detect feature is on.

The Ring Detect setting is located in the Portable's Control Panel Device
(CDEV) and lets users wake up their Portable when an internal modem
detects a phone ring. This setting can be accessed only when an internal
modem is installed.

This problem was fixed in System 6.0.7. System 7 also fixes the problem.
