I'm not up on the Worldport modem since I don't use one.  I have read messages
about "something" doing with a power source needed for one of the external
modems but do not recall exactly what it was.  I do recall that something was
said about making sure that the power is supplied to the correct modem pin.  I
know this isn't much help.  I just didn't keep notes on that subject.  Perhaps
others will jump in on this one.
 
I can say that many people are now using faster external modems on the laptops
with mixed success.  You need to play with external modems to find the right
combination.  We "do" have files in the (4)Library Telcom section supporting
external modems.  -Rick-
