What Can I Do with My MultiModemZDX?
Your MT1932ZDX is the gateway to the exciting world of
telecommunications.
You can use it to access commercial online information services such as
CompuServe, America Online, Genie, and Prodigy. These services provide
access to databases, encyclopedias, stock reports, news, weather, and
shopping. They provide electronic mail (e-mail) links to subscribers of the
same and other services. Public message areas called forums allow
subscribers to trade information and opinions on a vast array of topics from
A to Z, while vendor forums provide hardware and software support from
Multi-Tech and other manufacturers. Online services also allow you to
upload and download computer programs, data files, and updated software
such as video and printer drivers.
The MT1932ZDX can also connect you to the Internet, an international
computer network of universities, libraries, businesses, and government
agencies. Like the commercial online services, the Internet provides e-mail
services, public message areas, and access to information and software,
much of it easily accessed through the World Wide Web.
You can also use the MT1932ZDX to dial into bulletin board services
(BBS’s). BBS’s offer some of the services provided by online information
services—usually e-mail, public message areas, and file transfers. Most
are run as hobbies by individuals, but some are services provided by
companies like Multi-Tech. Though some charge an annual fee, many are
free.
Other uses include direct links to friends with modems, to banks, and to
service bureaus. You can also telecommute with your fax modem—work
at home while communicating with the office by modem or fax.
