Hi:

1) did you check the modem setings in the device manager for the laptop
        and compare them to the ones in the desktop?

2) did you try a different laptop modem?
        a) if it is built in,  you can disable it and try either a pcmcia or a usb
external modem.
           You should have one or the other available to you.

3) did you check the IBM website and see if others with similar model
laptop have a similar problem or is a upgrade (firmware) was available for it?


GOD BLESS AMERICA!
