Troubleshooting GSM SMS modems
Check the following issues:
• Check you have not configured GFI FAXmaker to use that port as
a fax modem
• Check if the GSM modem is not installed as a modem in control
panel, this frequently causes other Microsoft applications such as
RAS or Microsoft Fax to attempt to take control of the modem
• Test the SIM card with your mobile and ensure there is reception,
no pin number has been set, you have enough credits etc.
