For you to enable the ThinkPad 570's built-in modem function in a particular countries, IBM must have received approval from the proper authorities in that country. If IBM has not received approval in the country where, you are operating your computer, you cannot use the modem function.
If you travel anywhere IBM has been authorized to use modem function, you can use it. Download the device driver and software from the IBM Web site (http://www.pc.ibm.com/support). You can check the up-to-date country listing on this Web site. (The listing is updated whenever country approvals are
received.)

A ? mark appears to the left of both Other devices and its subdirectory, PCI Communication Device.
If you click Add New Hardware in the Control Panel, a ? mark appears to the left of PCI Communication Device in the Devices box.
