Modem problem
Folks, My DSL moden got fried by a near by lightning strike right before I went out of town and I've been using my internal modem until my new DSL modem arrives. However it no longer recognizes a dial tone. I can no longer check the modem box when trying to setup a new location in the network port configurations screen. Is my modem toast? Or am I suffering from some sort of software malfunction? Jason -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Wallstreet modem problem
I have a friend whose Wallstreet was connected to the phone lines during a storm last year, whereupon the internal modem quit working. He's used an external ever since. Recently I saw a Wallstreet modem on the Swap list and ordered it for him. I put it in, but could not get it to work. The profiler said at various times that no Apple modem was found or that the modem is in use no further info is available. Of course the modem was not in use in any way I could detect when it said this. It looks identical to his original modem, down to the plastic strip with the Canadian emblem on it. The modem itself says that it is a Powerbook GV 56K modem. Connected to the phone line, it would dial, but no dial tone was detected or heard (although one was present on the line, which worked fine for other computers) and no connection was made. Any ideas on this? Does it seem likely that some other component besides the modem is fried? TIA, Beverly -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: OS 10.2 Jaguar modem problem reported
Hi folks, can you help with this one. please. I installed a clean copy of 10.2 jaguar onto a reformatted hard disc. All clean. I had saved my internet preferences, for my client (mulberry) The server connects whne I press connect. All settings are correct, including an alternative dial up connection. I am using the internal modem. However when I try to check mail, or to connect my browser, it cannot connect , and a modem error is reported. The email client even tries to dial up when already connected. I have switched off automatic connection on remote access. Even Apple's email client does this; my chess internet programme, auction bidder, all the same: 'modem connection problem reported', 'check modem connections' and no successful action from these applications. The settings are correct however. And I may even be connected, manually. I restarted in OS 9 with same settings and applications, no problem. What can be wrong? regards, John You don't mention what machine it is, but just in case it may be useful: I was totally unable to use the modem in my Wallstreet with Jaguar until 10.2.3, I think. Maybe you should try and update Jaguar to the latest version, 10.2.8, or to 10.2.6 at least, and see if it makes a difference. Luis Sequeira -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: OS 10.2 Jaguar modem problem reported
I guess you read my update on this ...I rebooted in Os9 and then restarted in OSX and the problem vanished. Restarting didn't do the trick. I had the same Faxstf problem with OS10.1 I got round it somehow, but not with the modem centre. I remember re-installing fax stf at some point before it worked. Of course, you know we do not have the answers yet. I shall post on the same topic if I have any new information. 9/1/04 1:48 am +0100 gf sciacca [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm not sure this is entirely related, but I have also reported a couple of weeks ago an internal modem problem on a Lombard under OS 10.2.8, but got no replies. I have not tried a dial-up connection as I'm on DSL since installing OS X, running fine and afraid to disrupt the harmony, but when attemptimg to use FAXstf it fails, as the modem can't be found. It doesn't show up in the print or modem centre or in the system profiler. Everything (dial-up fax) runs fine instead under OS 9. regards, John -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
