Yes, there is a connect tine-out setting for the modem. 'Control
Panel|Phone and Modem Options|Modems|Properties|Advanced|Change Default
Preferences', change the value in the "Cancel the call if not connected
within (xx) seconds" window. You may also need to add several commas to the
end of the phone number to keep the modem busy a little longer; each comma
adds a 2-3 second delay to the call sequence.

I am trying to use the Windows FAX program. I set up the script for
long-distance and international calls. The program dials access number,
account number, PIN, destination codes and numbers correctly, BUT it
disconnects before the called phone ever answers. Message: No Answer

Is there a time-out setting that I am missing? Any suggestions?

Thanks,
DHD
