Possible to use TC as modem?

Hello!
I currently use a Thompson modem (3 years+ old) to connect via ADSL (by the  telephone line) to internet. I only use the TC as bridged backup device, connected via ethernet cable to the modem.  Is it possible to make a different setup and use the TC as primary modem?
The upside of this is to take advantage of the better and/or faster wifi technology of the TC (dual wifi bands and what not) than my old modem.
Thank you,
Per

You do need a modem for adsl.. there is no modem in the TC. But the modem is bridged.. you cannot plug a phone line into the TC.
I should have been more specific.  You don't need a modem to dial into an ADSL account that uses PPPoE.  Put the modem in bridge mode and use the TC for the PPPoE connection and routing.

  • Any possible playbook using an external modem ?

    in my country, internet connection on the bb phone is not to good because there is bundling with the package. So we're better using a wifi. If any possible the RIM create the connection (usb) using an external modem (sim card inside) like the competitors ?.
    Thank's.

  • Is it possible to use an Airport Extreme router with AT&T 2Wire modem/router?

    My AT&T 2Wire modem/router does not have great range, speed, or compatibility with my Macbook and iMac.  I bought an Apple Airport Extreme to try to remedy my problem, however, I did not realize it was purely a router.  Is it possible to use the 2Wire modem/router as just a pure modem and connect it to the Airport Extreme?  Would it be more beneficial to purchase a new modem that does not have wireless functionality?  I have looked at previous posts but couldn't find any definite answers.  Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!  Thanks!

    The easiest route to take here would be to simply turn off the wireless function on the 2-Wire modem/router and then configure the AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode to provide a dual band wireless network.
    If the 2-Wire performance shortcomings are the result of other wireless interference issues at your location, unfortunately the AirPort Extreme may not perform any better, wireless wise.  It's not possible to know things like this in advance....more of a case of you won't know until you try.
    In theory, it might be possible to configure the 2-Wire product as a simple modem...but I doubt that AT&T would be willing to tell you how to do this or provide support in the event of problems.
    It's getting to be hard to find a simple DSL modem these days, and even if you do, it will have to be re-configured as a Bridge to work correctly with the AirPort Extreme, so that complicates things as well.

  • Is it possible to use the iPhone as a modem and pick up the internet ?

    I wondered if it was possible to use the airport facility on an iMac G5 to pick up the internet from an iPhone placed near by ? THis would effectively make the iPhone a wireless modem ?
    I've not got an iPhone yet and this would be really useful.
    Thanks in advance.

    The iPhone does not currently support tethering. There was an app that did that, but it was pulled from the App Store after only a few hours of availability, and all such apps have apparently been banned.

  • It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?

    It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?
    I was using "remote" with a D-link modem, that works fine at my iPad. But now I´m using only the cell phone as modem 3G, and don´t want to intall a router to put new cables at my notebook.

    What?
    You want to control iTunes on your computer using the Remote app on your iPad?
    And you want to connect the iPad and computer through your Nokia?
    No, this will not work.
    Just create a network with your notebook.

  • Is it possible to use USB modem on Toshiba AT100 tablet?

    Hi all!
    I just purchased a Toshiba Tablet and I was just wondering whether it is possible that the Tablet could use a usb modem. My usb modem lights up to say its connected but cannot find where it registers as an option.
    Regards
    Pictonite,
    Tablet Noob.

    Hi
    >that the Tablet could use a usb modem
    Found this info on some Android webpages:
    +Sadly, you cant plug a 3G modem into the USB as there are currently no drivers available. Perhaps later down the track Google will add support for the mobile dongle in its tablet OS, but for now, youll have to jump onto WiFi or a wireless mobile hotspot to get the AT100 online+

  • Possible to use IR Modem with MacBook Pro?

    I am a new MacBook Pro owner who travels frequently to a variety of locations.
    I am interested to see if I can use a PSION Travel Modem (an IR Modem) as a backup for those instances where WiFi just isn't available.
    (Believe me, I will travel to such locations.)
    I have used this nifty modem ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004RKHF ) with my Palm in the past. I have done quite a bit of searching through Google & this forum, but have not found a specific Psion modem script or a generic IR Modem script to try.
    Can anybody point me in a direction to get this working?
    Thanks,
    Brad

    Apple has not included Infrared output on their Macs since 2001. You'd have to find a Mac compatible USB or ExpressCard 34 adapter for Infrared. I don't know if it is possible to reverse engineer the Infrared of the Front Row remote, but that's the only logical means I can think of making it work if it were possible.
    I'd get a 56k modem, if you want an alternative to WiFi:

  • Is it possible to use a Nokia mobile phone as a modem for my ipad2, which hasn't, got 3G. If so does anybody know how?

    Is it possible to use my Nokia X6 mobile phone as a modem for my Ipad2, which is not 3G enabled. If so how?

    You need to download something called JoikuSpot from the Nokia Store, they were giving it away free last week. You then follow the instructions to basically set up a little wifi hotspot, look at the settings carefully and create a password to get on it, by default it creates an open network so anyone can use it.

  • I am unable to access intranet on my MacBook Pro 13" with OS X mavericks. Is it possible to use files on the Local Area Network?

    I am unable to access intranet on my MacBook Pro 13" with OS X mavericks. Is it possible to use files on the Local Area Network? I use the files on the Local Area Network on my windows computer by typing in the I.P address in the library. Kindly guide me how i can use these files stored over the Local Area Network.

    I disabled GateKeeper's automatic blocking of unrecognised developers, and so I was able to install the driver.
    The Mobile Connect program is now installed, but the computer still does not recognise the modem.
    I also borrowed a USB hub from a friend and it didn't make a difference.

    In Iphone hotspot is of course in use and i renewed usb lightning cord. I habe tried the way to rename network**.plist files but with no results. Ihave updated 6.1.2 now three times.  Ihave no problems when I use Macbook with huawei modem, and also my Iphone is working very well. So problem is only when I try to use it as modem to my Macbook.   What I have to do now?

  • Cant load half of the FB apps using my usb modem

    What would possibly cause a USB modem to cause half of the Facebook apps to no longer to load as of ten days ago.
    1)  It is NOT my computer.
          -I used my laptop under 4 different internet connection and had no problem accessing all my FB apps
    2)  It is NOT Facebook
          -I have no problem using any of the facebook apps when NOT using my usb modem.
    3)  It's THE usb modem
          -I used the same usb modem on my other laptop that has VWAcess Manager and got the same results of not abling to gain access to half of my facebook apps.
    4)The current USB Modem I am using is Pantech UM150-AL and been using it for 4 years
    I eliminated many many possibiltiies and can only conclude its the USB Modem, but I cant see how the heck it's doing it.  Any help on this will be grateful.

  • MacBook-Apple Modem use with DSL Modem

    I have a MacBook and also purchased an Apple USB Modem. Have not installed it as I now have DSL and their modem. Don't appear to be able to fax with the DSL modem, thus want to know if it's a problem installing the Apple USB Modem for faxing purposes? Is it possible and do I need to disconnect the DSL modem to do so?
    <Post Relocated by Moderator>

    Hi IMAC LADY!
    You cannot be connected to the Internet, while you are sending, or receiving a FAX.
    You must use a Dial-Up connection, to FAX.
    Not all DSL Cable Modems can be configured to send a FAX using the OS X FAX function.
    Review this KB Article Can I fax with my cable, ADSL, DSL, or ISDN modem using Mac OS X 10.3?.
    I have DSL as well, and when I want to send or receive a FAX, I disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Mac Ethernet port, and plug a phone connection cord, from the wall jack to the Internal Modem port on the Mac.
    If using an External Modem, connect to that.
    I have a two port Splitter/Filter plugged into the wall jack.
    The Cable/DSL Modem wire, is always plugged into one of the ports on that splitter.
    When I want to use the FAX function, I plug the phone connection cord into the other port, but I do not unplug the Cable /DSL Modem.
    The Splitter/Filter may not be a necessity. If you don't have one, just unplug the Cable Modem wire from the wall jack, and plug in the phone connection cord.
    I then set the Network System Preferences, back to the Internel Modem, or External Modem, deselect the Built-in Ethernet, select Internal or External Modem, and drag it to the top of the window.
    This of course will disconnect the Mac from the DSL connection, and you can then use the Internal Modem to send or receive a FAX.
    Also review this Topic Faxing, for additional tips.
    Additionally, when you enter the recipient FAX number, use this format 1-area code-xxx-xxxx.
