There are 2 cables came with the package:

The 3 pin connection I take for granted is to power of Mobo.

The 4 pin connection I think is a TAD connection. I do not have a sound card installed ... video card, yes. I use the on board sound. Where do I connect this 4 pin cable to the ASUS P5B Mobo? Is there a TAD connection in the ASUS P5B? Any suggestion and help in the direction will be grateful!

Actually I think that's wake-on lan/ring. Allows the PC to power up when the phone rings.

If you're not planning on using your computer to answer actual phone calls or set it up for voice mail, don't worry about it. The connection to the sound card is not required for data communications.

Otherwise, there may be a connection on the motherboard for auxilary input for the onboard sound. Your motherboard manual should be able to tell you where.

Greg, thanks for the possible hints to the connections.

In the past I never bothered about these cables [if that were provided] as I only needed such modem to dial out and download small files. Since now I intend to use these new setups in the future for the voice mail functions in "Ventafax-Business", this is the reason I really need to sort these connections out.

Unfortunately. nothing in the "AOpen Manual" talks about these 2 cables and nothing in the ASUS P5B Guide IDs the 2 terminals that you pointed out.

I suppose I will have to wait for an answer from AOpen and then get onto ASUS. I have a feeling that they will eventually tell me something and none of them knows the others products and their answers will never meet to shake hands.

I would be very lucky if someone happened to get this modem and the ASUS mobo in question and get it working on voice mail.

My regrads to all!

Harvey

I have received quite a comprehensive reply under the said circumstances, from NCIX. I am happy with their service behind what they are selling. However, I have contacted AOpen directly prior to contacting NCIX support, I thought that they are in a much better position to answer my questions, as they manufactured the product. I receive nothing from them … that explains ….

Ryuji, thanks!

Harvey

Hi Harvey,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Unfortunately I do not have a sample modem to look at to give you an answer I can be absolutely confident with so I will need to go by past experience. Most likely the 3pin cable you have is for a WOL (Wake on Lan) header. Basically when the modem receives a call it sends a signal through the cable to wake the computer up. This is rarely used now as most computers come with a 'Power on by PCI Device' feature. If you go into the BIOS and look under the Power menu under the APM configuration, you will see this option. Set it to Enable and your computer should wake (if the modem supports it) when a call comes in. As for the four pin connector, I'm guessing it's a TAD cable (the wires should be red/black/black/white). You can to connect this from the modem to your motherboard's CD IN located toward the left side of the motherboard between PCI slots 2 and 3. With this cable connected, if your software supports it, you should be able to record phone messages.
Hope this helps out a bit.
