Environment
Overview
While setting up a BlackBerry smartphone as a tethered modem, the following message appears while querying the modem:

Note: To query the modem, complete the following steps:
- Open the Control Panel on your computer.
- Double-click Phone and Modem Options.
- On the Modems tab, highlight Standard Modem and click Properties.
