No option to connect by modem

Hi,
I am trying to get my wife's eMac to connect by modem. It is a G4, 768MB RAM,1Ghz,running system 10.3.9. I have an external USB modem that works under System 9.2.2 with the same computer.
The problem is, in System 10, there is no option in the Network tab to connect by dialup modem. Just options for ethernet.
Please help,
Gregory

I see. Did it come with any driver that you need to install, as it works under OS 9 but not 10, that would be the next thing to look for. Check the modem's website for drivers and see if there is one available for OS X 10.3.9.

My iTunes library will not completely sync to neither my iPad nor my iPhone -- both are completely updated with the latest software. What do I have to do?? When I try to do the "autofill" option when connected to iTunes it says "no songs can be copied"

My iTunes library will not completely sync to neither my iPad nor my iPhone -- both are completely updated with the latest software. What do I have to do?? When I try to do the "autofill" option when connected to iTunes it says "no songs can be copied"...I literally bought some of these songs yesterday on my iPhone and now I can't sync them to my iPad. What is this issue? Usually I would just have to plug either device into iTunes and everything would sync, now nothing new syncs.

On your iPad tap Settings > Store
Switch Books off then back on then reset your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule). I want to erase my old one. My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem)

I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule). I want to erase my old one. My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem). I want to erase it and then use it as either a second hard drive (sired/sirelesly?) or as a hard drive/bridge. So,
1. why doesn't my cmputer see the old TC
2 once i have solved that, how do I erase the old one
3. Can I use the old one as a supplemental hard drive
     a. wired?
     b. wirelessly?
4. Can I use the old one as a range extender?
I know .. a lot of questions but I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

1. Because it is either the same IP as the new one or hidden by being plugged in as a second router.
To access it, isolate one computer from the existing network and plug it directly by ethernet to a lan port of the TC. Use the erase function in the TC to remove all the content of the hard disk.
Then go to the internet tab, connection sharing and select off bridged. You can then reconnect the TC to the network.. and the computer as well. The TC will act as bridged device.. getting IP from the main router and should then appear correctly in Airport utility.
2. I covered in 1. But you just go in airport utility manual setup. disk, and you will see the erase function. You can also set it to bridge and leave the erase until you put it back in the network.. but be careful you erase the right one.
3. You can use the old TC via wired or wireless.. although I would always stick to wired connection if possible. Speed on wireless is 10x worse than wired.
Also note the reliability goes down dramatically after 2 years.. a series 1 3 years old or more is ebay fodder unless you want to repair it. Do not trust vital data to it.. when it dies you will have issues recovering it.
4. Yes, all apple routers will function as wireless extenders. when you do that the ethernet ports turn off so it becomes a purely wireless device.. strange apple decision on what you want to use your TC for.

Aw geez, they sure have messed up OSX.
Do you have a backup of 10.8.2?
Maybe...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

Cannot connect to modem's web-based-configuration program

Hello,
I'm trying to connect to my modem's (D-Link DSL-321B) web-based-configuration program by giving its ip-address (192.168.1.1) in a Safari widow. I get the error message "Safari can't open page 192.168.1.1 because the server where the page is located isn't responding".
The modem is connected via ethernet cable to an airport time capsule. The mac is then connect via WiLan. I have tried other web browser programs, rebooted everything, reset the modem, connected the modem to my macbook via ethernet cable and read ALOT of information but I still can't find the solution and get into the menu. BTW, all Mac software is up to date.
I would be really grateful for some help. Thanks in advance.

Hi Linc, thanks for the reply and sorry for the delayed response. I have tried your recommendation and unfortunately, it did not help, same error message. Any other suggestions? Thanks

Advice about FXS Port configuration for connecting to modems

Hello all,
We have not confirm the problem, but we are having reports that analog devices like USR V.92 Modems and Power meters are not connecting or dropping the connection. We have an ISR 2911 with the 4-port FXS-DID WIC (VIC3-4FXS/DID), configure to an internet SIP truck provider. The Router is running IOS 15.3(3)M2. If we connect an analog phone to the FXS port and call, voice is clear. So the question is what configuration settings should we have for FXS ports and/or dialpeers for connections to modems? Attached is the current configuration of the router.
Do we have to be worried about Codec? If so which Codec should we configure?
Any Physical FXS settings should be set?
Are my DSP setup correctly?
Again, I'm at a loss, as voice sounds good and my searches for modem connections to FXS Ports on CUCME is coming up dry. Any help would be great.
As far as the "Power Meters", we are talking substation power meters.
Thanks for any advice you can spare and your time,
Nick

Hi Amit,
No problem on the delay. Your help is very much appreciated.
You're losing me a bit. Because I don't know if your giving me dial-peer 1 as an example. 1 being just a random number. Or your telling me to change my current dial-peer 1 configuration. Which is currently a pots dial-peer:
dial-peer voice 1 pots
description POTS port 0/1/0
destination-pattern 111111111
port 0/1/0
dial-peer 1000 voip is our outbound call leg. Sorry call legs are not exactly clear to me yet. In fact they haven't been in years. :) So change my dial-peer to dial-peer voice 1 voip?
My other question still unknown to me is should we use:
fax protocol pass-through g711ulaw
Even though we are trying to use a modem and not a fax? Also this command is a dial-peer command and not a global command. So what global command should i be using?
Again thank you for your time and help,
Nick

Can't connect with modem through e2500 router

I have an old Speedstream 5100 modem hooked to my e2500 router. Everything works well except if for some reason my modem disconnects from ISP I can not log into it through the route to reconnect it. I must plug a direct cable into modem from computer run connect script then plug modem back into router all is fine again.
Any ideas why connecting to modem through router is blocked?
Thnaks,
Al
Solved!

My Speedstream only has one Ethernet connection so I didn't realize that it looked like a router to the local network. I changed the mode to bridge on the Speedstream and setup PPoE on e2500 and reconnected to ISP on e2500 setup screen. That may solve the problem of reconnecting since now it is managed on the e2500.
One thing I now see is since I left the modem IP set to 192.168.0.X I can't get to it at all through the e2500. Is that because my DHCP in e2500 is setup with 192.168.1.X IP range so modem isn't addressed in my network? If I hook directly to Speedstream and change IP to 192.168.1.X will it become visible on local network?
You cannot access the modem anymore while you have an active PPPoE connection. For PPPoE the E2500 won't need an IP address from the modem thus it doesn't do DHCP on the WAN port and thus it never sees it. When you try to access 192.168.0.* addresses the E2500 will route it through the PPP tunnel to the ISP.
If you hook your computer directly to the SpeedStream it should automatically pick up a DHCP address (assuming the computer is still running on DHCP and not with a static IP and the SpeedStream does not automatically disable the DHCP server in bridge mode). If you have set up a static IP on the computer you have to change the IP address to a 192.168.0.* address.

HP 250 G3 can not connect to modem when it returns from sleep

Hi, Ralink RT3290 Wifi adapter driver is loaded on my HP 250 G3. I can connect modem and internet. I can download and upload data from internet properly. However, if I put my PC on sleep, after waking up, PC cannot connect to modem. At every turn, to solve this problem, I turn off and turn on wireles adapter. Then, PC can connect modem and work properly. How can I solve this problem. Is there any problem on my wifi driver or something else? Please help me.

Thanks. How long is the delay?
I've had that on my Late 2007 MBP since Day One but the delay is usually only seconds--no more that three on a bad day.
I think its to do with waking from sleep. The standard sleep mode in the MBP is :Safe Sleep" where the computer writes the contents of RAM to the hard drove before sleeping as a safety net against the battery running dry while the computer sleeps. If the computer has to read this spot of info before completely awaking.
When I first purchased my MacBook Pro, a month ago, it would connect immediately upon waking from sleep. Now, for some unknown reason, it will not
That could be the result of now having more to write before sleep than when the computer was new because it's been in use a while and had other software added. For a test, see if the delay is reduced if you quit all open apps before sleep.
Having DashBoard active could also be a contibutor becasue many widgets have to "phone phone" for updates and could be preempting the connection opening for regular use. I use this widget:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/status/dashquit_berenguierduncan.html
to shut down Dashboard without having to restart the computer. It's a carry-over from the old days of slower computers and expensive RAM but i find it still useful. This does not harm Dashboard or make if unavailable later. It 's basically the "off switch" that DashBoard should have been granted.
If, after quitting active programs and Dashboard, the delay is still more than a few seconds, then something else is at play. As the computer is new and under warranty, I would let an Apple Store look at it.

Why does my iPhone no longer give me the option to connect to my tv via Apple TV when on Safari as it previously did following my latest software upgrade?

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
Same phone, same tv, same broadband network so everything the same so I assumed that it would.....just work!!! :-)
I'm away this weekend but I'm going to turn off and reload the Apple TV to see if that might work.
If not I may be begging your assistance again next week!!!
Have a great weekend.

Connecting a modem on FXS;ISDN PRI

Hello,
I have 2801 with a PRI connection to PSTN and 3 4port FXS/DID cards. I have connected several modems on FXS ports ( I believe you can connect a modem to a FXS port) but when users dial in through ISDN to these modems the connection is quite bad (to many errors and it is very slow). Does anybody know a way to solve this? Is there some special configuration that has to be done on the router when you are connecting a modem on a FXS?
Thanx in advance

I only have one gateway ( no originating and terminating gateway) and I only have POTS dial-peers.

Send AT commands to Option iCON 322 3G Modem

I have an Option iCON 322 3G Cellular Modem and would like to check out the AT commands with it, but so far I haven't been able to get terminal to connect to the device. A guide says to use |ls -l /dev/tty*| to find my device locations, and here's what it shows for the modem:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 11, 8 Aug 15 20:51 /dev/tty.Icon322 App

crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 11, 12 Aug 15 20:51 /dev/tty.Icon322 Modem
So I tried |screen /dev/tty.Icon322| but it just says "Cannot exec '/dev/tty.Icon322': No such file or directory."
Can anybody help?

I finally figured it out, I had to do screen /dev/tty.Icon322 Control to get it to work.

Connecting wireless modem and airport express

I currently run internet with an old Motoirola Sideboard cable modem and Airport Express - previous version. All runs well. Now my Optus provider has upgraded my service with a Premium account for higher speed. They have also given me a free wi fi Cisco modem - DPQ3925. How can I replace my old Motorola modem and still maintain Air play etc with my new modem using Airport Express. I need to know exactly wire per wire help - please, if possible - Thanks
Mac

Hi - I have a similar issue.
I have a new macbook pro, ATV (3rd Gen) and AXn (purely for Airplay of itunes).
All three are wirelessly connected to my HG556a Huawei WiFi Router.
The Macbook pro and ATV work fine and can see each other for airplay mirroring and itunes.
The AX connects and comes up in Airport Utility (AU) and itunes shortly after you turn it on, but if you either dont use it or stop using it and switch to ATV or whatever it dissapears from itunes and AU says it cant find it. Randomly the light on the AX stays green the whole time.
I have to switch the AX off and on to get it back working again (i.e. itunes and AU can see it).
Following other forum posts I've set the AX up by hard connecting it to my router, setting a static iP and reserving ports 5353 and 3689 to that address. I've also turned off ipv6 or whatever using the networksettings Terminal code string. I have also repaired permissions with disk utility!
It still dissapears from available options in iTunes and AU. ideas?
