Did you try selecting a different modem model? I don't remember which
OS it was for but Apple had to create another modem profile for one
OS version because of problems like this. It was long ago and my
memory is getting shorter with age.

rocks!
We had a similar issue with a recipient's 'book who put AOL on it.

simpler to dump AOL and go with a different provider.

Yeah.
Please don't take this the wrong way, but I'm really not interested
in hearing this argument. I've got a technical problem with a
hardware/software combo, and I'm not interested in anybody's
personal take on the software/service provider choice that my
family has made.
That being said, I think that except for the additional overhead
that AOL injects into your bandwidth, AOL is really a very nice
service. It might be overpriced, but it does offer a lot of tools
for internet neophytes that no other service provides. AOL is a
SERVICE, not a program.
If all you want is a PPP connection, there are plenty of
alternatives (even some that are free or close to free). If you
want an Internet Service Provider that does more than give you PPP,
AOL is great.
Please excuse my diatribe, and thank you for taking the time to
respond.
Peace,
Drew
