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! :^)

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.
