Setting dial-up Modem problem

I installed a 56 K PCI Faxmodem and am on dial-up, it says com12 that my dial-up service says it must be a com 3 How can I change it?

Hello

Unless you use a communication software that was provided by the service to access remotely and has been designed to work specifically with COM3 it shjould not matter.

The number of COM is selected by the operating system according to availability, it could be that COM3 is already active. Boot into the BIOS and check if COM3 is affected.

    Hello Stephen,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Community Forum.

    According to the description, I understand you are trying to reset the baud rate for your dial-up connection. You tried to change the BAUD rate in your login from 19200 to 115200, but the connection attempt is made at 19200 and if it fails every time.

    I suggest you to check with your ISP (Internet Service Provider), if they have their own custom settings saved using an application that controls the baud rate.

    In the local info window, select an area code; for example, 0.
    Then click the Modems tab, click Add.
    If a User Account Control warning window appears, click on continue, and then click Next.
