What is USB GSM modem?

It's a USB internet modem. Simply speaking, it's just for internet connection.


Normally, we can call GSM modem a 2g modem, GPRS modem for 2.5g modem, and EDGE modem for 2.75g modem.

THis sounds like you have ether a bad modem router or connection. You will not notice it with a webpage but VOIP uses UDP a real time and stateless. Which in a nut shell means the phone send a stream of data and dosen't care if the other end gets it or not it just sends. If you have a bad connection to the internet the phone will get interminit packet loss aka: audio breakup. So to debug and fix this.

First eliminate the variables:
Connect the Phone Directly to the Internet Providers Modem.

Reset or power cycle the modem.

Try to call out.

If it is still breaking up contact your isp for support.

If the router is the Cause of the issues:

Try to go to Dlink.com and flash the newest firm ware to the router.

If that dosen't resolve it you may need to get a new router. I recomend a linksys router as they tend to last about 3-5 years.

The 9 pin serial port, dosen;t always have all the "lines" that are in the 15 pin. (obviously) normally ya need Tx, RX RTS, CTS. You need to find out exactly what lines are needed. Make sure via metering that they are all there. Also it may need to cross-over ie: Tx goes to Rx and Rx goes to Tx. Try using a Null Modem. OR try a USB to 9 pin Din serial adapter.

I expect it is a problem with your USB Driver, Get an updated driver for your USB slots. (either from motherboard manufacturer or USB manufacturer if it is a USB "card")
Even default or old drivers might work Try a few different USB drivers - a new one, the reccomended one, the original one...
(good idea is to use a ps/2 mouse and keyboard since your usb will be going on and off while you're working, it can be hard to click YES when you're keyboard AND mouse aren't working ;-)
if it still dont work...
Can you set any of your USB slots to work in USB 1.0 instead of 2.0, there could be an option in bios, maybe it will run the "OLD" modem in an OLD mode?

ok u have tata indicom in this usb modem u have cd with this for tata indicom usb modem driver first u have to install this cd in computer after this use the modem other wise the modem not working...ok pls install the usb modem cd in your computer.

You will need an i9 USB modem driver for this. Find one for this model at http://chinamanuals.com

It should work fine as long as the external modem has a USB connection and drivers for the operating system you're running (Windows XP or Linux).
