CallerID problem with a USR modem

[Krass]

I was in a thread with someone trying to help me out....

...Thought I'd post here to reach more people. Maybe someone with the same hardware as me.

This is my brand new internal PCI modem:

I've loaded HyperTerminal, typed 'AT', echoed "OK". Typed AT+VCID=1, echoed "OK", but then when phone call comes in, I only get the "RING"s echoed. (same problem as many ppl, it seems).

I tried AT+VCID=? to display Caller ID settings available and it echoed "+VCID: 0,1,2". I tried =0, =1 and =2, all echoed "RING"s only.

If anyone has an idea of what's going wrong, I'd greatly appreciate some help. I HyperTerminal session was configured to use COM3, which is the good COM using the modem.

Thanks for any comment.

(Edit: The phone cable going to my modem is passing through a phone-line filter like all my other phones receiving callerid information. This is needed since I'm using a DSL isp. Should I try my luck and avoid using the filter???)

(Edit2: Tried changing country settings of the modem to United States - didn't help (was Canada))
