Using the Correct Telephone Line Type
Use a standard analog phone line, as in most households. In an office, use a line
connected to a fax machine or modem. In a hotel, request a room with a standard
phone line or data port. If necessary, check with the local phone company or
administrator to make sure you are using the right type of line before sending
data.
