6280 as a modem

I have connected the Phone to my PC via IR and via USB successfully (backups transfers etc ok) BUT it refuses to work as a modem. The symtom is that I can see that the correct number appears on the phone once I start dial up but Immediatly (before even attempting to ring) the call is disconeected with errors like "Remote computor failed to respond"
It seems all the dial up software I try to use behaves the same way and it's the same with USB or IR.
It's probably something oh so simple but I just can't figure it out.
I looked through quite a few FAQs etc but couldn't find anything similar (sorry if I missed something obvious!)
All the modem Diagnostics etc all check out fine.
The PC works fine with my old (very old!) Nokia mobile on IR
Any ideas?
Thanks

Ok thanks for the advice,
I contacted the service provider but they have no suggestion but promised to look futher with their technical staff. (I'm not hopeful)
Again if anyone has suggestions I an greatful
Thanks

Where exactly are modem settings stored?

I was trying to add my wife's phone to the list of devices we used to connect to the internet as bluetooth modems last night, and all **** broke loose. We're on T-Mobile in the UKI, I use a Nokia 6280 and she has a 6300.
I've been connecting fine, and so thought adding her phone would be simplicity itself. But nope. Couldn't get her phone working which was no big deal as she hardly uses it, but I use the phone everyday as a modem and now it's not working either.
I think it's something to do with the port settings on Bluetooth but I can't be sure. Anyhow, despite trying to mess around with the Ross Barkman's scripts and info at Taniwha.org.uk, I still haven't had any job.
T-Mobile won't help, as I do pay 12.50 GBP per month to use their dedicated 3G service, so I'm on my own. I suddenly realised I could just restore the files Time Machine from before all this happened, but I don't know precisely where to look. Specifically, where will I find the files containing the setting changed by adding new phones, storing details of paired phone, port details and network settings such as APNs, Script details etc? If I can get those, I can just restore and hopefully everything would be OK. Help gratefully appreciated!

Problems with N80 modem

I'm having trouble connecting to the internet using the modem on my N80.
The problem is that the AT+CNMI command is returning an ERROR.
Does anyone know if there is an upgrade available to correct this.
Thanks
Chaz

Intresting....
Among my searching tonight I discovered Nokia released an updated firmware for the 6270 that fixed the response to the AT+CNMI command....
Being the 6280 is almost the same and S40 I guess this is a nokia issue which should be fixed by them.... Also as the N80 seems to have the same issue I would call this a little more than a coincidence....

Nokia 6280 and dial-up

Hi all, I'm trying to configure my MBPro and 6280 so I can dial my ISP. When I try and connect (using varies settings ie modem script, ignore dial tone etc) I get the error 'No carrier detected. Please check phone line connection and try again.'
The phone is paired and syncs ok via iSync. The phone works ok in the Address Book and I can connect via GPRS ok.
Any help is appreciated.

I'm having the same problem.
I found one program that can solve it, but it costs about 90 euros. Launch2net. I tried the demo version and it works fine, all though via Bluetooth, which slows it down to 480kB/s.
I'm still looking for a free solution, or at least a lot cheaper, but maybe it helps you.

Issue to write/execute AT-commands for a 3G modem

Dear community,
For the past month, I'm searching for some help on this topic without success, "you are my last hope"
After modification of the PPP parameters under network preferences (according the clear archive from apple support on this topic), the terminal windows is poping up without any problem.
Then... I can't write anything on this terminal !!! The only actions I'm able to perform is cancel or continue button. I also press the Return key as apple support mentioned (issue for 10.2 or earlier), nothing.
The test was done on a early 2010 macbook 13 and the same on a mid 2010 macbook 15, the same issue.
- Am I doing something wrong or mac os restricted this com protocol?
- Is there a way to command the modem trough the main computer terminal (which is working properly)?
Thank you in advance!

You've probably solved this problem long ago, but I came across this thread a couple weeks ago when trying to do the same and thought I post this .vi for future users. This code is for a multitech MT5656ZDXV modem, but I think the AT commands are generic enough to be used with any voice modem. Hardware configuration requires and audio cable running from the PC speaker to the modem mic port. Also, I had to use a Konnex Office Konnector telephone line A/D which required me to manually pick up a handset; the software prompts the user to do this. Fancier A/Ds should eliminate the need for this and I have one on order. If you have an analog phone line then there should be no need to use an A/D or manually pick up the phone.

How do I use a Netgear CM400 cable modem with my Time Capsule router?

I switched out my TWC modem for one I bought. I called and activated a CM400 Netgear modem with time Warner cable. They said it is activated and responding. My time capsule is on a green solid light but i can't connect to the Internet! Why??

Your previous setup may have been a modem router and the TC is connected in the wrong mode.. it should be dhcp and nat with a pure cable modem.. is it?
You also might need to put the TC into the correct mode.. then power off the modem for about 15min.. (try 5min first).. power up the modem.. wait 5min and then power up the TC .. it should grab the public IP and route that to the network.. reboot all the clients so they get fresh connection and see if that works.
If not give us a few screenshots from the airport utility of how the TC is setup.

How do I add an airport extreme to a cable modem with only one ethernet port, while keeping that port connected to my Mac?

I have a mac pro connected by ethernet to a cable modem via ethernet. There is only one ethernet port on the modem.
I want to keep the Mac connected via ethernet for speed. Is there a way that I can add an airport extreme to this set up - for my ipad and roku, and for guests to use - or do I need to buy a router to put between the modem and the mac?
If I need a router, what kind?
Thanks.

The modem connects to the WAN "O" port on an AirPort Extreme router.
The Mac Pro connects to one of the three LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme router.
Or if you do not need the ability to connect a hard drive to the USB port on the router, you can save a bit by using an AirPort Express.
The modem connects to the WAN "O" port, the Mac Pro connects to the LAN <-> port
Either the AirPort Extreme router or AirPort Express router will allow up to 50 wireless device to connect.
There are many other wireless modems offered by other manufacturers as well.

Wireless modem and Airport Express.. one at a time

Recently my internet provider upgraded my old plug in modem to a newer wireless model. Now it seems that the current setting allow communication with only one or the other at the same time. If I want to be online with the wireless modem and send my iTunes music via Airport Express to my sound system, no dice. I have to either click on the modem up in the Airport choices to be online and listen to iTunes through the computer speakers, or go offline to listen to music through the sound system and Airport Express.
I'm sure I'm just missing something in preferences or settings somewhere.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks, and Happy New Year!

DSL modem no longer recognized by computer

I am on dial-up right now, because I can no longer connect to the internet with my Verizon DSL ever since Windows Vista failed to update a driver a couple of weeks ago, during regular Windows Updates. I have done extensive troubleshooting and all the tests boil down to something being wrong with the modem. The modem was working just fine, but now Windows does not recognize the device because it cannot update the drivers. It suggested going to the manufacturer's website. I found an update on the Verizon website, but the computer still does not recognize the modem.
I have a Westell 2110 DSL modem. I downloaded the upgrade from Verizon's website: B90-210015WebLoad_VER_01_00_35
The computer says I am connected to the internet via Verizon, but I have limited connectivity to the local area connection. Therefore, my computer cannot connect to the internet.
In summary, my computer no longer interfaces with my dsl modem, and yet has failed to update new drivers. Is this an example of Windows Vista not working with old hardware? Is there a way to fix this? Or do I have to buy a new modem? (expensive)
And would it happen with a new modem? I can't use the installation CD that came with the modem because it does not work with Windows Vista.
Please help! I don't want to waste money doing something that doesn't work or won't last.
Thank you

My DSL modem was doing similar problems and I couldn't figure out why, but one day I had a friend come over with his computer and it worked just fine on his computer. I still haven't found out the cause why my computer that is running vista is not working just that its not vista his computer has vista to. Have you tried another computer? Im no expert in this, but when my computer went out I was downloading the new Verizon Security Suite so I could keep the virus protection they offered. Im not certain that this was my problem but I do think my problem could be the same problem as you.

I had a failure of a dsl modem which inturn destroyed my ethernet port of non isight imac G5. In attempt to solve the problem I did a clean install of leopard 10.5.4. I am unable to upate to 10.6,.7 or .8 without freezing system network preferences

Dsl modem failure caused malfunction of ethernet port. In attempt to solve problem I did a clean instillation of Leopard 10.5.4 and then update to 10.5.5 with access to internet through apple usb to ethernet adapter. If I attempt to update software to 10.5.6, .7 or .8 it freezes my network system preferences and computer will no longer shut down. The network connection assistant also no longer sees a connection to the internet throught the usb/ethernet adapter. I have checked they systerm Tech tool deluxe which shows no problems and also used hard drive utility on instillation disk which found no problems. Permissions were also checked as well and no problems noted. Any thoughts as I really like my imac G5.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If all the above fails, then it appears to be time for a relatively painless Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space and no Disk corruption, and is relatively quick & painless...

WRT54GS with Mac OS 10.6.8 and RCN cable modem not working

Hello,
I have a Linksys WRT54GS, version 6 with Mac OS X (version 10.6.8) hooked up to a Scientific Atlantic cable modem, with RCN as the ISP.
Recently, RCN had some network issues, and so I had to power down and reset my modem. The modem is working fine now -- no problems at all when the Mac is connected direclty to the modem.
The router's network is OK in that I can connect the Mac wirelessly to the network, but I can't connect to the internet through the router (through neither the wireless or wired connection).
I have downloaded the latest firmware update for the router, following the Linksys site instructions, but this has not helped me solve the problem.
Does anyone have any advice as to what I should do? I did call Linksys tech support on the advice of RCN, and they said that the router does appear to be working (power, WLAN, and Internet lights are on), but they would be charging me nearly the cost of a new router to fix the problem.
Any advice would be appreciated!

Since you upgraded the Router WRT54GS with the latest firmware so once reset the Router and power cycle the whole network… Then connect the Modem with Linksys Router on the Internet Port and then connect any one computer to any one of the Ethernet port on the Router [Numbered – 1, 2, 3 and 4]… Let me know the RCN connection is a DSL connection or cable connection…
So if you have a DSL connection you can refer to this link:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=4020&userrole=Linksy...
So if you have a Cable Internet Connection you can refer to this link:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&vw=1&articleid=3686
As far as the wireless is concern:
# Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page…
# Then Click on wireless Tab create the Wireless Network Name SSID and select the channel to 6, 9, and 11… Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on Wireless Security sub tab and select the security mode and provide the password as per the requirement… Click Save Settings...
After doing the settings try to connect the preferred network on the wireless devices and check the connectivity….

Why can I send email from my iPad, but my iMac which is connected to the same modem keeps telling me that it can't send the message using the same server?

I have an iPad 2, connecting via Wifi to an Actiontec Q1000 modem. The iMac (3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz RAM, running OS 10.8.2) is also hard wired to the same modem. Internet access is via CenturyLink. Main email is from Shaw cable in Calgary (Phoenix is a vacation property), not through CenturyLink.
Can receive email on the iMac, but every time I try to send, I get a pop up saying "Cannot send message using the server .......". Further prompts me to verify the address in the email, and SMTP settings in Mail preferences, or to select a different outgoing mail server. I've tried using a number of servers, always the same result.
Using same settings in both devices.

Mail is not my forte, but what I noticed was that you have Centurylink and presumably have your Mail set up with their settings? But then you mention Shaw/vacation property/etc - you can send out email only through the server that you have set up as an account using the ISP you are using. If you switch places, do you have separate accounts set up with both Centurylink and Shaw so you can switch and use whichever one you're at? A Phoenix ISP won't work with a Mail POP account unless you're in your home - Phoenix - area.
Do you have a data plan with your iPad? That would explain why that works - it'll function sort of like a cellphone - works anywhere where there are signals.

If your not hearing dial tone you might have your phone plugged into the wrong port. Most modems have 2 outlets, one is labeled line ( that is the one you should have plugged into the jack (RJ11C). If that's correct, query the modem and see if it tests OK, you may have a defective modem.
