Drivers for the Apple External Modem in 10.5

Hi all! I recently upgraded my system with Leopard. All seems to be great save for the fact I can't use the external Apple USB modem attached to my Macbook Pro. While I don't fax that much I do sometimes have to use it to receive faxes and such from others. Is there a driver update for this for Leopard? Thanks to all in advance for the help!
Lance

The drivers for the Apple USB Modem are already installed along with Leopard..... I'm not sure why its not working.
Try opening up System Preferences - Network, and see if it shows up/if its enabled.
Other than that, I don't see why you should have any problems.

  • Drivers for the Westell 6100 modem for my DSL?

    Does anyone know where I can get the proper driver for my 6100 Westell modem?  I have a yellow question mark in my device manager and i keep getting a no driver found for ethernet connection message.

    If you are using ethernet, no drivers for the modem are needed.

    Sorry dude, search and you'll see....you are screwed! They never posted even a mixer for download! Maybe you'll get one of those cut & paste messages from that moderator who can't accept Private Messages saying "We do support our product...if you call sales and buy ( another product ) a driver CD..." isn't that support?

  • Modem settings for Apple external modem

    I'm not certain if my terminology is correct, but is there a way to set the packet size (MTU?) for sent transmissions for an Apple external modem? Specifically, I'd like to see what mine is set for, and change the values to perform some tests. I've seen posts where the MTU cannot exceed 1492 bytes with some ISP's or data is fragmented. My specific problem is that I am unable to send attachments larger than about 50KB from Leopard's Mail app (3.2), although I can send attachments with no problem from Tiger. Text messages are no problem. Thanks in advance for advise.

    Thanks a lot for answering.
    I believe the modem is working. I can hear it dial, hear the handshake and apparent connection. The modem status display shows "Connecting" then "Authenticating" and eventually "Disconnecting". I get an Internet Connect report that "Authentication Failed". I have verified that my Account Name and Password are correct, by logging on to the Road Runner Web Mail site. I went through that in detail with their tech support.
    How can I disable v.92 in OS X 10.5.6? I tried disabling error control and data compression, but that seemed to have no effect. What about these settings:
    Send PPP echo packets
    Use verbose logging
    Use TCP header compression
    Would any of those PPP settings have an effect on Authentication?
    So far, the only way I have been able to connect and log in by dialup is with a PowerBook G3 (Wallstreet) in OS 9 with a PC card modem. My normal connection is a cable modem and that's no problem, but I wanted to test dialup as a backup. Now, it's a challenge.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Apple External Modem FAX Does Not work in 64bit mode

    Apple needs to update its Fax Driver to 64bit mode. Since upgrading to the i7 in 10.6.6, the system boots in 64bit mode which is great! Except i can't fax anymore from my MacBook. Research has shown that it only works in 32bit mode. I do not want to boot in 32 at this point. Anybody know of any other solutions, external fax modems or 64bit drivers or software that will work with the Apple External modem?

    I am having similar issue.  I can't order a new McBook Pro until I know I can fax directly from it ... its essential for me.  I'm shocked no one as addressed your concern.  Is Apple so arrogant when it comes to their business customers that they abandon fax/telephony technology with out a fall back position or warning to users? 
    I got used to Microsoft arrogance; but I was hoping more user concern from Apple. 

  • 10.5.2 and Apple External Modem Dialup - computer freezes when dialing up

    Hi,
    Many thanks in advance for your attention.
    Since upgrading to OS 10.5.2, the computer freezes (the cursor freezes) each time I try to dial up to internet. The only way to unlock computer is to shut the power button off and start over.
    I am using the Apple External Modem.
    Had no problems before (10.5.1, 10.5, Tiger, etc.). So far I seemingly have no problems with any other app. Only when I try to connect (dialup) to the internet.
    I did the usual repair and verify permissions before and after installation.
    I did a repair and verify Disc (from the Install Disc) after these problems.
    Both reported no problems.
    I also tried trashing Internet Connect prefs files in Home Library.
    I see a lot of posts and looks for Wireless connection problems.
    The only dialup solution I've read so far are people who went back to 10.5.1.

    Hi,
    Found this as a suggestion on how to fix the 10.5.2 internet dialup problem, but it is so vaguely written, I have no idea what the tipster is talking about.
    I assume the tipster means one types these commands in Terminal?
    If someone can explain the following in English, I would be grateful.
    I had problems sharing a dial-up (Modem) PPP connection. I want to use NAT for security reasons and found that only the first connection after reboot worked. Subsequent connects would fail due to NATD not rebinding the new PPP bindings. Restarting NATD fixed the problem. Luckily PPPD fires off some scripts in /etc/ppp depending on connection status. The following script restarts NATD after every successfull connect if you save it as /etc/ppp/ip-up (don't forget to make it executable):
    #!/bin/sh -
    N_P=`ps -uxc -U root | grep ' natd$' | awk '{ print $2 }'`
    if [ "$N_P" != "" ]; then
    logger -i -t $0 "Sending SIGHUP to natd (PID $N_P)"
    kill -HUP $N_P
    fi
    Yes, this meant to be run in the terminal.
    Really, the poster expected that these commands would be saved in a sh script and executed that way.
    Create a txt file and past those commands into it. It will need to be saved with execution permissions.
    What does it do?
    N_P=`ps -uxc -U root | grep ' natd$' | awk '{ print $2 }'`
    This asks the system for a list of running processes (ps -uxc) where the user is root (system admin) and passes this list to grep (which filters the list looking for a process with the string 'natd$'. This passes a single line out of the process list to awk which simply prints the second item in the list.
    The end result is that the procid (process id) for the natd process is stored in the variable N_P.
    Next -
    if [ "$N_P" != "" ]; then
    logger -i -t $0 "Sending SIGHUP to natd (PID $N_P)"
    kill -HUP $N_P
    fi
    This checks whether a natd process was found - $N_P not null string.
    If a process was found - the logger command writes and entry to the system log and then the script tries to kill the process gently (kill -HUP).
    This should clear the natd process which should restart if you try and dial again.
    The script is not really vague - just needs a comment or two to make it understandable to those who are not Unix geeks.

  • MacBook + Apple external  modem

    I was given a brand-new MacBook at work and a brand-new Apple USB modem to take home, where I only have dial-up.
    When I open Internet Connect, it comes up under the BlueTooth tab. I put in all the info and it won't even dial. I wish I had written down the error message (can't check it now) but basically it says it "can't open Internet Connect". Does this mean it's not recognizing the modem?
    I tried to "edit configurations" and noticed there are 4 versions of Apple external modems there, and I tried all 4 with no luck.
    Any ideas?
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Connect the modem to the USB port. Open Network preferences and select External Modem then click on Configure button. Click on the TCP/IP tab and set the Configure IPv4 drop down menu to DHCP and click on Apply Now button. Then click on the PPP tab and fill in your ISP information, user ID, password and telephone number (these are for your dial up account.) Click on Apply Now button. Click on the Modem tab. Select the Apple External Modem V.92 from the drop down menu. Check the box labeled "Show Modem Status in Menu Bar." Click on the Apply Now button. You should be all set. Quit System Preferences. From the modem status menu bar item select Connect.

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

    No, sorry. it won't work with the 2007 MBP. You can replace the optical drive yourself - just go shopping at OWC.

    There's been an update for OSX ML which addresses the issue for installing Windows 8 on bootcamp.
    It's NOT recommended that you Upgrade.. However, the way to get the drivers is:
    You'll need an external USB drive formatted as FAT for this.
    1) In OSX, start the Bootcamp Assistant
    2) Press Next
    3) UNTICK 'Remove WIndows 7 or Later Version'
    4) TICK Download the Latest Windows Support Software from Apple
    5) Insert USB drive
    6) Press CONTINUE
    The drivers should download, and copy a WIndowsSupport folder onto the USB drive.
    I did notice that Windows 8 still requires beta drivers for some aspects such as VGA (the Radio HD Card), which you can get on the AMD website.
    Futhermore, why are you using Windows 8 "32" bit when you blatently have a powerful 64bit?
    Anyway, hope this post helps ;-)

  • Using Apple external modem in Windows

    I just got a new black 2.16 Macbook. I have ordered a copy of Windows XP Home SP2 and a copy of Parallels. I have a software called Meditech by Cambridge Software which allows me to connect to my hospital computer system via a modem--the Mac version stopped working a while ago on my Macs, as soon as they became G5 the modem wouldn't connect anymore. The software was written for Windows with the Mac version as an afterthought I believe. Will the network settings when run in Windows XP allow me to use my Apple External Modem (as you know, they Macbooks don't have a built in internal modem) to connect to this software?

    hi . I had the simalar  problems of my HP b209a-m printer not being seen on my wireless network> I could not add the printer and could not get the printer to join my network,  I found this post at HP discussion and it worked!
    Each printer has different options/settings but it seems like the general idea should work ok if you can reset printer back to factory settings and find Printer IP Adress.
    This is for HP printers
    1. On the printer navigate to the Wireless or Network menu.
    2. Select Restore Defaults.
    3. On your computer look for a wireless network named 'hpsetup' and connect to it.
    4. Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer to see its IP address. (on my b209a-m Printer the IP info was found by pressing the Wireless Icon)
    5. Type the IP address into the address bar of a web browser to see the printer's internal settings.
    6. Click on the Network tab and look for the Wireless Setup Wizard and run it.
    7. The Passphrase is the password you use on your wireless connection.
    8. Now change the network name on your computer back to your wireless network.
    The printer will now be connected to your network.  With your the computer backyour wireless network network, you can re-add the printer from System Preferences.
    Hope this works--- it did for me.

  • How can i get windows drivers for the 2013 MacBook Pro Retina?

    Hi there,
    today I have installed on my late 2013 MBP retina via the Boot Camp Windows 8.1. The installation was smoothly but some drivers are not present including the wifi driver.
    Through online research, I found out that in the current version of Boot Camp no drivers for the 2013 model are listed. Do you have one probably have an idea how to get it to run anyway?
