Dial-up and newly acquired AEBS ~ can't detect modem connection / dial tone

I've read the threads but have yet to find an applicable solution...
Just received the new AExtremeBS, connected and set up as prompted...
Not able to get online with my iBook G4 as the modem / dial tone cannot be detected.
Obviously, since I'm posting this dilemma, the dial tone exists and everything is fine as long as I remain wired (defeating the purpose of the AEBS).
Simple answer?
Also, when this is resolved, plan to connect wireless printer...
Suggestions?
iBook G4 (1.4 GHz / 1.5 GB) Mac OS X (10.4.7) iMac (9.2); Performa 631CD (Ancient 7.5); MacPlus (Primordial Ooze OS)

* Figured it out myself...needed to use the AirPort Set Up Assistant AND the AirPort Admin Utility AND reconfigure modem settings PLUS reset the Base Station, ALL REPEATEDLY...but now can get online AND print wirelessly (using the Brother MFC-640 CW).

I am unable to connect to my RackSpace Windows Server via ARD. I have added a computer entering the ip address, username, and password but I can't establish a connection. I am missing a setting or to step that is different in ARD?

ARD only works with Windows computers if the Windows computer is running VNC server software. Even then it can only control and observe. Do you have this installed?

Yes you can still connect to WiFi. You can activate cellular when you need it.

You can not install iOS 5. It is no longer signed by Apple. You can only install the current version of iOS. For a 3GS, that's 6.1.3.
However... if you have 4.2.1 on your phone, odds are it is not a 3GS, it is a 3G. If that's the case, you've reached the end of the road for that. It can not run anything higher than 4.2.1.

TS1589 when I open airport utility it performs a scan and then say it can not detect a wireless device. The rest of the screen is blank; all menus are blanked out. What do I do?

I just replaced our wireless modem with a new one; our airport extreme is now flashing amber light. When I get into airport utility it attempts to scan for the device but can not detect it. The utility screen is blank - nothing to select or configure. The menus are also blank. What do I need to do?

Can't detect Network Connection?

I'm using a wireless connection at the library, and as long as I connect through Firefox it works fine (Safari gets picky about it), but I have trouble with both Mail and iChat AV. Neither can detect the connection at all. I ran connection doctor, and it just told me I have no network connection. I pinged the servers through Network Utility and it worked perfectly.
Any tips or tricks to get this running? Did Bill screw up our wireless? Do Linksys WAP54G not work with Mail and iChat?
At least my browsers work, but it would be nice to use some other programs...

Hi Emi,
You would like to thinks so.
Go to System Preferences.
Then Network.
Choose the connection method from the second drop down.
Choose the TCP/IP tab
Does this read "Using DHCP" ?
What is the IP below that for your computer ?
Further down what is the "router" IP ?
Also make and model is your modem ?
If the Linksys is the "router" as shown in the IP above then it should be shown as 192.168.1.254
If you see this IP type it into a web browser.
(just the Numbers not www or http bits)
After you hit enter you should get a pop up asking for User ID and password. If the WAP54G is still in default settings then these should both be admin in lower case.
Can you tell us what the connection method says at the top of the Setup page please ?

Can I detect a connection to my MBeans/ MBeanServer?

Hi all,
is there a way I can tell that someone connected to my MBeans/ MBeanServer?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Carsten

Yes, if you call connectorServer.addNotificationListener(listener, filter, handback) then you will be informed when someone connects or disconnects. The filter and handback parameters can be null. Alternatively, you can specify a JMXAuthenticator when you create the connector server, and it will be consulted every time somebody tries to connect. That allows you to refuse the connection if its origin or credentials are not appropriate.

BroadXent DSL Router to older AEBS - can't get multiple connections

Router is "auto detection" half or full bridge mode, direct ethernet cable to older "mushroom" AEBS. For some reason, can only get one wireless connection at a time. Have to shut down connected machine before can get connection to another. Not unusual that I have to cycle power on modem and AEBS to get new connection. This is a recent problem. I had a LinkSys BRFSR81 router (which died today) between the modem and AEBS and had no problem w/multiple wireless machines at the same time. Likewise, tried to temporarily use a Netgear 4 port switch in place of the linksys router, and can only get one hardwired internet connection at a time. (Modem=> LinkSys 8 port, 5 ports ethernet to various macines, one port to AEBS to 4-5 laptops - worked out well, everyone got connectivity) What am I missing? Help please!! - family is all over me about no connectivity!

Mission accomplished.
I used the instructions in the last post of this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11085975&#11085975
BUT, I set the AEBS to PPPoe rather than DHCP.
Rebooted the Westell, powered up the AEBS...Good to Go!

Time Capsule and Time Machine: How can I force Ethernet Connection for the first backup ?

Hi,
How can I force the Time Capsule - Time Machine Couple to communicate via an Ethernet cable for the initial backup without changing the wi-fi configuration of the Time Capsule?
I do not want to change the wi-fi configuration of the TC because it appeared that I was not able to restaure it proprerly after a first "ethernet backup".
Please note that I do not want to use my TC to extend my wi-fi network nor create a new one. But, when I disable the wi-fi on the TC, as I want to restaure it, I only can see "expend" or "create a network" options within the wirless config page of AirPort Utlity; "Connect to a network" is not shown in the list!
Thx a lot for your attention,

You MUST change the TC mode to something other than join a wireless network.. because in that mode, TC turns off the ethernet ports.
The join a wireless network is hidden option because apple do not support it and it works poorly.
You can access it by holding down the option key.
You can also save the current settings and restore them after you finish the ethernet backup.
Please note using join means double hop wireless and your TC data speed to the Mac will be extremely slow.. this will also affect your other internet connections and any other computers on the wireless network as it will use most of the capacity for much longer period than directly connecting to the TC.
Basically that is why Apple do not support it.. it is lousy way to work a TC in a network.

Pages and Keynotes for iOS can not detect documents on my iPad 2

...but all documents can be seen on my iPhone 4s and on iCloud.
Both iDevices updated to iOS 7.0.3., both apps updated with latest patch. I have tried to reset the iPad 2 (64 gb, WiFi+3G), with no positive effect. I saw this error yesterday evening for the first time. Everything was working Tuesday evening. I am able to access and work with the documents in iCloud on my PC. That work gets synced like it's supposed to.
Any suggestions?

That was fast - and it worked!
Now I just have to figure out, how all those settings got turned off
Thanks again for the help! Much appreciated

IPod Touch 4g can't detect or connect to wifi

I just got a brand new iPod touch 4g for Christmas and have used it without incident until today. I have connected to several wifi networks, including my secured network at home and open networks at my university and elsewhere. However, as of this morning, it no longer even detects networks, it simply seems to indicate that there are no networks nearby. I tried this morning at school, even tried to type in the network's name but it didn't work. Then I tried at the Amtrak station and it didn't work. Now, I'm at home and I KNOW my wifi is working, since the computer I am typing this message with is connected. But my iPod still won't detect any wifi or connect when I type in the network name. How do I fix it?

I have this same problem. I thought it was the digitizer. New one was put on at a repair shop and still nothing. They said no sign of water damage or dust. Their diagnosis was that it probably is the motherboard is bad. I hate it... I can't back up my music that is on there.
Very sad.

Can't detect or connect to my wireless network - Diagnostics says wireless radio is not functioning.

Couldn't print; computer said printer was not connected. Tried to reconnect to wireless network, couldn't connect. Ran the Wireless Network Test Report, which said "the wireless radio is not functioning. Contact HP support."

Follow the instructions in the manual to reset the printer back to Factory Defaults. Now check the wireless radio status again. If the same, use the front panel to navigate and attempt to enable the wireless radio. Again, check the status after. If it still says it is not functioning, the wireless radio is indeed defective.

AAM can't detect Internet Connection on Win8; can't install the trial version of PS CS6

I helped a buddy to install the trial version of PS CS6 Extended on Win7. Everything went well with making her Adobe ID and the installation worked perfectly. Then at home I wanted to install the trial version on my Win8. I got AAM installed but when it requered logging it said "No Internet Conection". I went to McAfee to be sure the Firewall allows everything to AAM (it was set to Oungoing by default). But it didn't work again. I reinstalled AAM and instaled again but the same problem persisted.

Thank you for the reply! I'm afraid of going as far for sorrow.:/ And I didn't find where this should be done. I switched from XP to 8 before one week and 8 is still unknown for me.

Skype can't detect sound card

Skype was working just fine previously when making a video call (could hear the other person well - no problems.) Then I stopped using the monitor stereo speakers and installed desktop speakers.
Wasn't happy with them and uninstalled them about a day or two later. When I tried to make a video call again (after choosing monitor speakers again under the pc control panel - sounds and audio devices, also tried to choose monitor stereo speakers in Skype but didn't see this option) - there was no sound - even on the Skype test.
So I tried "check settings" and saw under speaker - "can't detect your sound card". Under adjust speaker settings there's no speaker suggestions at all - it just says none.
I also cancelled the speaker setting on SoundMAX digital integrated audio under the control panel.
I have rebooted the system but still the same problem!

I'v sorted out the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience!

IPhone 3GS can not detect SIM Card after upgraded to iOS 6.0.1

Guys I really need your advice please...
I upgraded my iPhone 3GS 32GB from iOS 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 a couple weeks ago and since then it can not detect the my SIM Card ever. Before it's been upgraded, the phone was working just fine, but now it's just like a gameboy to me. I've been trying to find solution and some stores want me too pay quite amount of money to fix it but I refused.
By the way, it has been jailbroken with RedSnow, tethered of course... and all the features are working perfectly, the WiFi is working, syncing is working, Bluetooth is working, downloading apps from App Store is okay, but only Mail and Safari won't work. I haven't got a chance to go to Apple Service Center to fix it yet, but the store I went said that Apple may say the same.
Thanks in advance.
ps to Admin: I'm a newbie, so if I posted this in the wrong room please forgive me.

Thanks Chris for your solution.
But just for you know that I bought Apple to get the 'after service', they should've warn the users not to upgrade to a higher OS if it can caused the phone 'dead'. Mine was totally unusable when it's just been upgraded. It stayed in the recovery mode and couldn't be restored. So I brought it to the nearest store and they did that to me, and eventually the phone is working, only it cannot detect my SIM Card...
The problem is not about upgrading an iPhone to a newer version of iOS. Your problem was upgrading a hacked phone, one of the well known consequences of which is re-locking and/or bricking the entire device when restoring in iTunes. You chose to hack your phones firmware and operating system, so you must accept the consequences of going outside the bounds of normal use that Apple prescribes and supports.
Had you not hacked it in the first place, you likely would have never had a problem, and if you had, Apple would have offered support to deal with it. Your choice, your decision, your consequences.
