Fixed:

I had the wrong connector on the modem. My labeling on the case was wrong for some reason.

I used to go to http://www.process-technology.com/processtechnol/faxback.htm

It's not working now. I found that by posting at Anandtech when I had fax transmission issues, fax reception being what I was testing there. Is there another site I can go to in order to have a fax sent to me? I'm having difficulties sending faxes and want to see if I can at least receive faxes. I had an external modem set up (Aopen), but have often had major difficulties with it, so I disconnected it and installed my 2977 USR internal hardware modem from another box. Still can't send faxes. I'm running Win2000, admittedly an old installation (09/2004), but I haven't had time to reinstall. I want to have a fax sent to me. I know there must be a lot of sites where I can do that. Thanks for any help.

Edit: I think this will work: http://www.sfgov.org/site/rentboard_index.asp?id=2155

I had a fax sent to me from the site in my previous post. I hit Manual Receive in my Winfax Basic Edition 10.0 and the modem in my PC chimed in loudly but somehow it didn't pick up! It just kept ringing. What could be wrong?
