56K Modem Problem (connection)

if i plugin the Airport Base Stations 56K modem into the Telephon, the telephon won´t work no more! I bought the Base Station for an Friend at eBay. There was no Modem Cable with it, so i grabed the old Cable from my G4.
Powermac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I seem to recall reading that the original eMac, which were meant strictly for educational use in classrooms and such, didn't have a modem installed. Maybe you have an education model without the modem card?

Using nokia mobile phone as a modem problem

I want to link up two computer (running XP) throughh two modems.
First, I set a PC that use 56k dailup modem as become a server (accept incoming connection), then connected by a PC that use nokia 6230 modem as a client and success. The 56k dailup can receive the call automatically and each PC can access the local area network to another.
However, it has a problem when i try to use 56k modem to connect to 6230. it seems 6230 treat the call as a voice call and not answer to it and I must set 6230 as a server in my place.
Then, i replaced the 56k dailup modem by a nokia 6610i and installed the lastest driver. However, the 6610i cannot dailup or receive call from 6230 except a voice call.
Finally, i try to borrow another 6230 from my friend (two 6230) and all works fine.
My question is:
1. How can I set 6230 modem as a server to accept connection from 56k dailup modem automatically?
or
2. How can I make connection between 6230 and 6610i (they work as modems)?
or
3. What fuctions can make 6230 to connect to a 56k modem? (is it fax??coz i want to make sure another model i buy has this function)
Thanks
Derek

Thank you Seraphim.
I think you are right because i just borrowed another 6230i from my friend. Now i have 6230 and 6230i, the ringing tone of the server (receive side) is different to a vice call and the connection between two computers is success.
I'm sorry if I may have made a wrong post here because i still have a problem in configing my 6610i as a modem in my windows. I have tried the "nokia 6610i Cable" and "nokia 6610i Infrared" Modem driver. I cannot dailup a call or receive data call. I saw the 6610i was trying to call out but all the calls returned "Disconnected" and even my home phone cannot be rang.
All of the cases I have tried are (the mobile phone worked as modem):
6230i call to 6230 (result: connection success)
6230 call to 6230i (result: connection success)
6230 call to Voice Phone (result: normal ring)
6610i call to Voice Phone (result: no ring, disconnected)
6610i call to 6230 (result: no ring, disconnected)
6230 call to 6610i (result: no ring, disconnected)
I have tried to set the 6610i in different windows (xp and 2000) but still fail and i also tried to replace the sim. card in 6610i by the one in 6230 but still fail....so the one i could guess is my nokia 6610i modem driver has some problems but i'm using the one that i just download today 26/03/2004, 1.0.2.4.
Any help would be much appreciated.

When I open firefox before connecting (via 56k modem) or if I leave a previous section open, disconnect and then reconnect, firfox does not work, it remains offline, even though internet is connected. I have to close firefox and reopen

When I open firefox before connecting (via 56k modem) or if I leave a previous section open, disconnect and then reconnect, firfox does not work, it remains offline, even though internet is connected. I have to close firefox and reopen

Thanks for the reply. I never get the option to "Restore Previous History" from History. I don't even have the box checked that asks to delete the history when Firefox closes. I don't know what's wrong, no matter what, I always lose everything. I have the box marked "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for when I open Firefox, but it never shows that, just my homepage. Also, when I check my History, it only shows the pages that I opened since I started Firefox, nothing from before. Even if I were to open up 10 pages now, close Firefox, and open it, the history would only show the homepage that opened this time, not any of the 10 pages that I opened 5 minutes ago.

Problems connecting IOS devices with new Comcast wireless cable modem?

Just installed a new cable modem from Comcast, it is their new high speed unit manufactured by Cisco. of the three IOS devices I've tried, all running currently the OS , are having problems connecting with the error "Unable to join the network " Home-XXXX" if you keep asking it may connect but I have to be persistant. My Devices are iPad 4 g Retna with 30pin connection, an iTouch ,latest model with camers, and current iPad mini. is it me or the modem?

You have probably already solved this issue, but I would hide the comcast wifi network (dont broadcast ssid) and make the password very hard. Make sure that put it on channel that does not conflict with your Airport Extream.
Connect the Comcast modem/router to the airport extream's wan port with an ethernet cable.
Comcast usually ships the DHCP enabled. Use the comcast DHCP server for your airport.
Configure the airport extream to "create a network" set the network to "bridge mode".
Name your network, broadcast the ssid all on the airport. Now all your devices will connect everytime. Use can use the Comcast "private" wireless network for maintenance, etc.
Just some thoughts... good luck

Westel 327 modem wireless connect problems

Just bought an iMac with Intel dual core microprocessor. Have been unable to connect to the internet via AirPort despite the best efforts (so far) of both Verizon (DSL) and Apple techs. My iBook has no problems picking the wireless signal from the Westel modem. Also, the iMac is able to connect to the internet via Ethernet (through the Westel)—no problem. Anyone have any ideas or has anyone else experienced problems connecting to the internet via Airport using Verizon DSL and the Westel 327 modem?

Hello all. Please forgive me if I mispost or forget something. I am new to the discussion boards. I recently purchased an iMac and could not connect to the internet by using the wireless on the Westell 327 but could connect if I used a cable. I found a modem firmware update through a link on the Dell website. A Dell wireless card had an issue connecting to the Westell and the link went to the Verizon download site for the firmware update. I could not get it directly from the Verizon site, only by using the link listed at the end of this post. I updated the firmware late last night and just now tried to connect with the Airport and was pleasantly surprised -- It works. I am using the WEP security. Do not forget to place an '$' in front of the WEP key to identify it is a hexidecimal value. Hope this works for you. It did for me. Notice: "Update your modem firmware at your own risk."

Internet connect for 56k modem

Have no access except by 56k modem.
Where can I find the download for this application? Please
Robert

Am a bit confused - could you clarify please:
You can connect to the internet via 56k dialup?
That is the only way for you to connect?
Exactly which application do you wish to download?
If the first two assumptions correct, you are paying your ISP for internet access via phone dialup. If you want to connect via other means such as DSL or cable, you need to find an ISP who offers those services in your area.
Once you clarify and give us more facts, we can figure out if I misunderstood your question.

Modem problems on 875P Neo

Hi,
I recently upgraded from a P4 1.4 on an ASUS maotherboard to a P4 3Ghz on an 875P Neo. I have an ASUS V8460 Video card and a Creative SBLive! 5.1 with an Intel 56Kbps PCI HaM modem. Other than the modem everything seems to be working fine. My net connection is really pathetic though. I get disconnected every 2 minutes with random errors.
I have a feeling, enabling Hyperthreading is causing this problem.
Has anyone else faced anything of this sort?
Does anyone know of any modem that works with the above settings? I don't want to disable HT, 'coz it really makes a difference while video editing.
Any help will be appreciated

I heared of HT bothering 56K modems.
You can try another PCI slot and updating drivers befor seeing about HT.

Problem connecting to the server Timecapsule

I am working with a Motora Surfboard SBG6580 Cable Modem going to my 4th Gen Airport Extreme, then a wireless bridge to my 3rd Gen 2 Gig TimeCapsule to extend the network, then using ethernet cables to TV, DVD and MacMini. When trying to run a backup with Time Machine, or just using it as a hardrive, I keep getting the error message "There was a problem connecting to the server "Timecapsule" - The server may not exist or is unavalable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again." I have seen a lot of posts on this problem, but I still don't understand what the issue or resolution is.
I have tried resetting the TimeCapsule, connecting the TimeCapuse with an ethernet cable, turning off wireless functions, wiped the drive and zero'd all data, etc., but with the same results. I may be wrong, but this all seems to have started when I ran MATCH while using the TimeCapsule as a storage device for all my iTunes media - it corrupted all my data and showed my disk as full, though pretty much everything on the disk was missing. All was working fine until that point.
Any help would be nice. Help!!
Thanks in advance

If you have backed up to 77GB or something then a backup has indeed been made.. On the TC there will be a sparse bundle and backup which can be mounted.. You cannot check the disk.. you check the sparse bundle.. which can be mounted.
Please do the following.
Disconnect and remove the TC from the network.
Plug it directly into the computer by ethernet. No other connection to the TC.. turn off wireless and every other connection to the computer..
If you still have issues.. press reset and redo the setup of the TC again.
Run Time Machine and see if it works. If it doesn't work now you have serious issues.. I would guess at a faulty disk somewhere.
What OS is on the computer? From the first post you use SL still.
I would also take the firmware of the TC back to 7.5.2 as I mentioned and do full factory reset this time.. ie hold in reset and then power on.. continue holding in reset until led flashes rapidly.

There was a problem connecting to the server "10.0.1.30"

In the last couple of days I have started getting the error "There was a problem connecting to the server “10.0.1.30”" popping up on the screen. Nothing to my knowledge has changed and I have no devices on my LAN that have an IP address in this range. All devices IP addresses are 192.168.20.1xx and my router's IP address is "10.106.75.57", subset mask "255.255.255.255", gateway "10.106.75.57", DNS "10.5.80.241 , 10.5.68.232" (Router is NetComm NF2 with attached AirCard 320U USB 3G/4G modem).
A couple of weeks ago I switch from using a Sierra (NetGear) Aircard 760S Hotspot Modem (default IP address of 10.0.0.138) using the AirCard Hub wireless router (IP address 10.0.1.1) to the NetComm router AirCard modem combination.
If I Ping "10.0.1.30" the results are as follows:
"PING 10.0.1.30 (10.0.1.30): 56 data bytes

This error message is annoying, but apart from that everything appears to be working just fine. Is there a way of tracking down what is attempting to call 'server"10.0.1.30"' and stoping it. I.E. is there a quick and simple fix?

There are many possible causes for this issue, and it may be hard to resolve. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
If you get the alert as soon as you log in, it's probably caused by one of your login items or by software that otherwise loads at startup or login. Ask if you need help identifying it. A known offender is "AdobeResourceSynchronizer," which is a component of some Adobe products. See also this discussion.
If you get the alert in the login screen before you log in, stop here and ask for instructions.
Step 2
If there's an icon representing the server in the sidebar of a Finder window, hold down the command key and drag it out.
Step 3
In the Finder, press the key combination command-K or select
          Go ▹ Go to Server...
from the menu bar. In the upper right corner of the window that opens is a Recent Servers popup menu represented by a clock icon. From that menu, select
          Clear Recent Servers…
and confirm. Test.
Step 4
Open the Printers & Scanners pane in System Preferences and delete any network devices you no longer use.
Step 5
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing command-C:
~/Library/PDF Services
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. A folder may open. If it does, move the contents to the Desktop, or to a new folder on the Desktop. Log out and log back in. Test. If there's no change, put the items you moved back where they were and continue.
Step 6
Open the folder
~/Library/Preferences
as in Step 5 and move the file named "loginwindow.plist" items in that folder to the Trash, if it exists (it may not.)
Log out and back in again, and test.
Step 7
Other possible causes are references in the iPhoto, iTunes, or iMovie library pointing to the server, and bookmarks in the Preview application.
Try rebuilding the iPhoto library.
Step 8
Triple-click the line below to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/Directory Utility.app
Rght-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
          Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* The application Directory Utility will open.
In the Directory Utility window, select the Directory Editor tool in the toolbar. Select Mounts from the Viewing menu in the toolbar, and /Local/Default from the node menu, if not already selected. On the right is a list of names and values. By default, the list is empty. If it's not empty, post a screenshot of the window and stop here.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.
Step 9
Open the following file as you did in the last step:
/etc/auto_master
It will open in a TextEdit window. The contents should be exactly this:
# Automounter master map
+auto_master          # Use directory service
/net               -hosts          -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid
/home               auto_home     -nobrowse,hidefromfinder
/Network/Servers     -fstab
/-               -static
If there are any other lines in the window, post them. Otherwise, close the window.

Problem connecting to a wireless network

I am using 'Aztech' wifi router/ADSL modem for wireless network at my home. I had been connecting fine with the internet using it until yesterday, when, after a software update, I have been unable to connect to the network (I can access it with my wife's laptop, an acer running windows XP). I tried reconfiguring the connection, reconfiguring the settings of the wifi router and even reinstalling the software, but without any positive results.
The current situation is: I can see the network in the list but when I try to connect using the correct password, I keep getting the message "There was an error joining the Airport network '(Network Name)'".
(I have no problem connecting via the cable)
Help me out please...
Mac Book 2.0 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I had the same problem with my Macbook after the update. It will no longer connect to my router using WPA-PSK authentication. It did work for me after changing my security settings back to using WEP authentication.
I have not been able to figure out the reason for this but this may help get your Macbook back on the internet for now.
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I was having problems connecting to my internet at home with my 4s. I tried many of the suggestions. Nothing worked. I did not want to sit on the phone with apple etc trying to fix it. I bought a router extender. It worked like a charm.

I just want to let those of you who have problems connecting to home internet. I had same problem with my 4s iphone and tried many of the suggestions here as well as on the internet. Then I found something called an internet extender. Bought it and worked like a charm. It was worth the $60 I paid. No more hours of trying to figure it out. I don't know if this will work for anyone else with this problem but if it helps you I'm happy

I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort Express base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the Express; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has initialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, the Express will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options.
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the Express from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the Express. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the Express to the Internet broadband modem. For the 2nd generation Express, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.

Having problems connecting wireless?

Hi All,
I just got my MACBOOK two days ago and having some issues connecting wireless.. I can connect to my LINKSYS wireless router but it seems after about 7 mins of use I can no longer connect to the router. I have reset the router and even changed it but I still seem to have the same issue.
If I use only PC's on my wireless network I don't have any issues.. It seems like the MAC messes up my network and it will not work again unless I take the power out of the router and then modem.
I have used my comp at a friends house connecting to their linksys router without any issues.
ANY IDEAS?
THANKS

If you have no problems connecting wirelessly on another network, then I'd look at your router as the probably culprit. Do you have any problems connecting to the router by Ethernet cable? Are your Network preferences configured properly? Have there been any firmware updates released for your router that you have not installed? Have you tried a different router in your home network? For example, try a D-Link DI-524. I've had good success with it. I've never had a really satisfactory experience with LinkSys, but that's my personal experience.

Win XP Pro + Airport Extreme + 56k Modem

Hi,
I just recently bought an Airport Extreme Base Station with the 56k modem with the intents of connecting my 12" G4 PowerBook and 12" G4 iBook (both 2005) to the internet via the 56k modem. For the record, both connect perfectly, always, no hassle. (Albeit a bit slow at 48000, and it takes 60 seconds to logon and 60 to logoff)
The catch here, is I have an IBM T42 ThinkPad (2005) that can see this Airport too. But I have not been able to find a way to turn the modem on and/or off using the IBM. I do know about the Jon Sevy java bit, I do have it downloaded -- BUT -- how does one go about installing this thing? It's a .JAR file.
I also saw a better 'dialer' here by a person posting as 'KewlDawg'(?) that also may have worked, but the link is dead.
I did manage to find a dialer called 'InModem 0.1.0' by Jason Barry Morley, but it often doesn't want to hang-up after a session.
So as you can see, I have trying to resolve this myself, but not very successfully. Anyone have a better solution for the WinXP world?
I'm so upset Apple didn't see fit to provide this themselves. What an undersight. I wanted to buy one of these for my Brother as he is a Windows only person and heavily uses dialup. Oh well, no sale there.
I look forward to all and any suggestions. Thanx in advance!

Bottom line? No! The standard for Gigabit Ethernet was set to work with CAT-5 cabling. CAT-5e, especially at the length you plan on using, will show no improvement. CAT-6 is designed for 10 GBps networking.

Problems connecting to internet after installing Leopard

I have been having problems connecting to the internet after installing Leopard. I have a G5 at my office and use safari and AOL, using a cable modem and router. Everything worked perfect until I installed Leopard. About 3 days after installing Leopard on my G5 I started having problems connecting to the internet. When opening "network" in preferences it tells me I am connected, but I cannot connect. So I have to restart my computer every time in order to connect. Then to top it off, often in the middle of the day I am able to get and send e-mail with AOL, but my Safari does not connect. And even more bizare, if I am connected and sign off my AOL, I lose Safari as well. Brought the G5 into the Mac store and after trying some stuff they told me "it should work now" but ....same problems. So last Monday, I installed Leopard on my Macbookpro which I use at home wirelessly, everything worked well until yesterday when the same issue with my G5 is happening with the macbookpro. No connection, it tells me I am connected, signal is strong, but nothing.....so restart and keep going. What is going on? Anyone else having same problem? Any solutions
Roberto

Roberto,
Is the install of Leopard on the G5 and MacBook Pro an upgrade install or a clean install?
Try some simple maintenance to see if this resolves it:
1. Run Repair Disk Permissions (Disk Utility)
2. Go to Network Utility and go to Ping enter in www.cnn.com and see if the packets are received/sent. This is just to see if you can get to the outside so to speak
3. See if your cable modem manfacturer has a leopard upgrade. Sometimes hardware companies need to upgrade their firmware when new Operating systems come out

Verizon DSL modem not connecting through Linksys wrt54g

I recently switched to verizon DSL from comcast. The verizon modem when connected directly to the back of my mac works amazingly well. Now i was to be able to connect with my laptop and xbox360 wirelessly which was not a problem with comcast. So i take the Ethernet/Data/Modem cable(what ever you want to call it) from the modem and connect it to the INTERNET port on the back of the router. Then take another ETHERNET cable and connect it from the first WAN port to the back of my computer where the modem was originally directly connected. The routers internet light is on as is first ethernet light on the front of the router. And all three lights on the modem are on; internet, data, and dsl. The macintosh is now not able to connect to the internet. The laptop can connect to the network but not to the internet.(says local only) It seems like a lot of people have had this same problem but i have yet to see a solution. and again when i take the cord from the modem to the router and change it back to connecting the modem directly with the home computer (mac) the internet works fine. I know this seems very dumbed-down and a dumbed-down kind of answer is preferred. I have been fixing problems with our home network for years now and have never come across something that stumped me while the solution seems like it would be so simple.

If you have Verizon DSL and you wish to configure your router and connect the XBOX360 wirelessly, then, first thing you should do is to fully bridge your modem, then connect your modem to the internet port of the router and configure your router's internet connection type to PPPoE...
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
When the router’s web-based setup page appears, click Setup then look for Internet Connection Type and select PPPoE on the drop-down arrow.
Enter the username and password that your ISP provided you in the User Name and Password fields, including the domain in the username if necessary such as [email protected] and CLick Save Settings.
Click Status then look for Login Status and check it says Connected. If it’s connected, you should be able to access the Internet.
NOTE: If the Login Status says Disconnected, click Connect, then check if you’re receiving an error message.
If you get an error meaasge follow this link
