with using modem.
I
am having this same problem with the pager. I am using
Nextel. Is there a terminal number that I need to get from Nextel
that is not the same as the paging number from a landline. If
anyone is using a Nextel phone for the paging service ( not the email
text) the please reply and let me know how you have this
setup.

You'd
actually want to edit a pager notification device, not a
beeper. For the number you need to put in a phone number that
corresponds to your service; it is generally NOT the pager number.
You can call your provider if you don't have this (I called arch to get
mine). The pager id is then just the pager phone
number. I used the default dial
string.
BTW, this
provided a use for one of about thirty old decommissioned 14.4
modems...I knew there was a reason for saving them!

[WhatsUp Forum] Help with using modem.
Hello.
I need some
help with making use of a modem in WUG.
I am running
WUG 7.04 on a dedicated Dell 1650 server. I have installed a PCI
modem into this server.
I have a
pager that accepts text emails. I'd like to configure WUG to
send a message to this pager via the modem.
1.Can WUG with an internal
pci modem or does it need to be an external modem connected to my com
port?
2.When editing the beeper
notification, what do I put for a beeper number?
3.What should the dial
string look like?
4.What do I put for a com
port if I'm using an internal pci modem?
Thanks for
all your assistance.
