called.
In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN of all devices connected to one
line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may
connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
If the modem causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in
advance.
But if advance notice isn't practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You
will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of your
equipment.
If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this modem, please contact your dealer for
repair/warranty information. The telephone company may ask you to disconnect
this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or you are
