A. When you use a Unimodem the device.log no longer captures thecommand however you can create an alternate log file to capture the modemcommands:

  1. Start the Modems control panel applet (Start - Settings - Control Panel - Modems)

  2. Select the modem for which a log file should be created

  3. Click Properties

  4. Click the Connection tab

  5. Click Advanced

  6. Select the 'Record a Log File' check box. There is no need to restart the computer

The log file will be created in the %systemroot% directory with name MODEMLOG_.TXT.
