I recently purchased a dell computer, and the modem is a intel(r)537ep v9xdf pci. It also came with BVRP 1.12 software pre-installed-for the mode on hold feature with call waiting caller id.
I have the call waiting caller id service from my telephone company. My problem is that the MOH notifies me when I have a call coming in, but does not show the name or number of the caller. The computer is only 6 months old, and I called dell tech support, they said for a 49.99 fee, they could help me. I would have thought this would have came ready to work out of the box. I told them that I had a year warranty, but they claimed that it was a software issue, which is not covered under the warranty. Has anyone else ran into this problem? Please help if you have the solution to my problem.

thanks,
bodog

It would be less expensive to throw the overpriced piece of junk modem Dell gave you away and get one that works.

Dell is headed for trouble because of their customer-unfriendly lack of support..... Would you buy another Dell? If the answer is yes, you deserve what you get....
