Here's a minor problem I've been having for some time. When I try to sign on to aol, I get a window that says "Unable to communicate with modem," with various instructions about checking connections, etc. I'm on a fairly new iMac G4 (flat panel display). Since the modem is internal -- hard wired, I assume -- what can this be about? It happens randomly but very, very often; occasionally it doesn't happen, but more often than not. When it does, the window has a button that says "Continue," and when I "continue," the window just keeps popping up, for a random number of times. Normally, if I keep clicking on it, I'll get on-line. But at least once or twice, I didn't get on-line, and the whole thing timed out and sent me back to the aol sign-on window. I finally had to restart the computer to make it work. Looks to me like it's a Mac problem, but maybe it's aol, and I need to dump aol and go elsewhere (which I keep threatening to do). Any suggestions will be appreciated.
