Seems the driver availiable for the GenericSoftK56 modem does not support the modem speaker on/off function. Many suggestions were offered, but finaly I tried yours - get a 3.5mm plug and insert it into the output socket on the modem card. Thought you'd like to know that I now have a silent modem. Many thanks. :-)	Sami (667)

It's much better than snipping the wires to the speaker on the modem. I'm impressed! Your idea is now in my memory banks to fix all the "when all else fails methods" Maybe there should be an "all else fails method" FAQ, I'd suggest throwing it out the window would have to be the last thing though.
