Modem port COM 3 is already in use

I installed the modem using the supplied driver, but every time I ask the modem he says that the port is already open. In device under ports COM and LPT LPT1 Manager only is there no mention of all the com ports. Any suggestions please

Hello

As far as I know that the modem uses virtual agrees that are created by the operating system.
There will be no physical com ports listed in Device Manager.
Do you have any kind of error messages or the modem is not listed in the Device Manager to all?

Good bye

    Hello

    1. If it works well before?

    2. what version of Modem drivers do you use? Do you have any other device connected to the computer?

    First of all, I suggest you to check if the modem is compatible with Windows 7.

    Check out the link:

    Windows 7 Compatibility Center:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/default.aspx

    I would also recommend to connect the modem to a different computer and check if it detects there. If it does not work on another computer also, then the problem is with the modem and I would ask you to contact the manufacturer of the modem for any further assistance.

    Error 633 indicates that the port is already in use or is not configured for remote access dial out. You may need to check if the VPN and the connection connection try to use the same port that is causing the problem. You may need to check the settings of the modem and change the port for your needs.

    To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:

    Method 1:

    Reserves explicitly the TCP port that is used for the VPN connection. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. click Start, click run, type regedit.exe in the Open box and then click OK.

    b. in the registry editor, find and then click the following registry subkey:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

    (c) in the Edit menu, point tonewand then click multi-string value.

    d. rename the multi-string value as 'ReservedPorts' and then double-clickReservedPorts.

    e. in the value data box, type1723-1723, and then click OK.

    f. exit the registry editor.

    Registry warning: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/

    .

    Method 2:

    Use the netstat command to find the program that is using port 1723. Then, end the process for this program. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. click Start, click run, type cmd.exe in the Open box and then click OK.

    b. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    NETSTAT - aon

    c. in the result which appears, identify the process ID for the program, if any, who is using the TCP port 1723.

    d. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:taskkill/pid PID/f

    Note: The taskkill command terminates the process that corresponds to the ID of the process. The/F option is used forcefully to complete the process.

    e. at the command prompt, typeexitand press ENTER to quit the command prompt.

    Restart your computer. This may cause the program that uses the TCP 1723 port to use a different port.

    I hope that helps!

  • TECRA S1 Modem Port in use

    Hello

    I have a Tecra S1 with WIFI and built into the Toshiba Bluetooth module.

    I can't use my modem after you install the bluetooth module. The bluetooth module works very well, and I can communicate with bluetooth devices. It seems to use "virtual" com ports to communicate with bluetooth devices. He created virtual comm 255 com com ports 5 (I think).

    But, the modem no longer works. When I go into the properties page for the modem (which reported no problem) I can't question the modem - it says that the com port (com 3) is in use by another application - even if I re - assign the modem to a different port, I get the same error message. I am running XP Pro SP 2.

    I'd like to be able to solve this problem. I had this problem for about 6 months. Apart from that, my laptop works really well and I'm really happy with it.

    Has anyone else seen this problem and fixed it? I would be very happy for any help. I hope I don't have to re - install everything that, as my laptop is a development computer (ram of 1 GB!) with Visual Studio 2003 is installed, SQL server, Dreamweaver etc... It will take a week for all installed again!

    But I have a new (empty) 80 GB hard drive, so I could build a fresh install of XP Pro on the new drive for a test... Any help VERY welcome!

    Hi Mark

    In my opinion the first step you should try is to remove the modem from Device Manager, then restart the device. After that, the modem must be recognized again and installed correctly. Also remove your dial-up connection and set it up again.

    It's great that you have another HARD disk. You can do some experiments and try to find out what may be the problem.

    Pritesh

    Hi pritesh_bb,

    Well understood, the error itself would mean that another application has already got hold of this port, and as explained it is first come first served. As such, you will be able to return to the port, unless you uninstall the other application. Would it be possible for you to change the port number? Perhaps 9189 or similar?

  • SMS port already in use... MessageConnection using connector.open

    I created an application that listens for incoming txt messages and it works very well on all devices except the 8330... works of ideal app on all phones on sms listening but on the 8330 I get the problem where the exception says "port already in use"... my application is currently in beta and a user reported he was continues smart guard... as soon as he took the chip guard the app works perfectly... so im guessing as smart guard uses sms messages to intitate itself is what is the origin of the port problem... is there anyway around this? my code is below...

    public void open()
        {
            this.controller.write("Attempting to open message connection (Message tracker)");
            try {
                this.msgconnection=(MessageConnection)Connector.open("sms://:0");
            } catch (IOException e) {
                this.controller.writeToConsole("Error opening message Connection (MessageTracker) "+e.getMessage());
            }
            try {
                if(this.msgconnection!=null)
                {
                this.msgconnection.setMessageListener(this);
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                this.controller.writeToConsole("Error adding messagelistner (MessageTracker) "+e.getMessage());
            }
        }
    

    MessageConnection is pretty useless, since only one application can attach to the SMS port at a time.

    My advice is to switch to use the method of datagram.

  • "Impossible to copy the requested resource is already in use" error message when you try to move the file to the thumb drive.

    I'm going to try really hard to do this makes sense, but I don't know much about computers.  Bear with me.

    Brother gave me a computer.  A graphics Nvidia GeForce 9800 inside.  Because it restored the system settings, the drivers are missing.  Can not connect this computer to the internet.

    So, I went to the nvidia site and downloaded the necessary drivers on my OTHER computer, which is what I'm now on the right.  The download ends, and when I try to move the (drivers) file in the USB, I get this delicious "cannot copy xxxx that the requested resource is already in use".  It is not in use.  I can't even use it on this computer as its pilots for a graphics card that is not yet part of this computer.

    What should I do to make sure I put the file with the drivers on a USB key, on the port to the other computer.

    (by the way, this also occurs with a few random mp3s of the mine.  10 of the 12 tracks on a CD, for example, does copy on the USB no problem, but then two of them to come up with the error message, for no apparent reason.  Don't know if it's relevant)

    Try another USB key. That one is may be damaged or failing. In the meantime, to burn the drivers on a CD - R disc (not CD - RW) to take the target machine. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
