At times, when my isp drops the connection the Disconnect scrolling message is seen to the right of the symbol and the phone line is actually disconnected but the scrolling "disconnecting" doesn't stop and it is impossible for me to reconnect unless I reboot the computer.
Is anyone aware of this problem and perhaps have a solution? I first had the problem when using 10.3.3 but thought that perhaps it would go away if I updated to 10.3.5. I have now done that but still have the problem. I am wondering if deleting a pref file might help. If so, where would that be located? Thanks. -- Emery Stora
Apologies if this has already been answered, but the (temporary, I hope) solution to this problem is an app called 'end hanging disconnect'. You could Google or check versiontracker for it.
Doesn't always work first time - I always have to run it twice - but at least much better than restarting.
Good luck.
