Using E52 as a dial-up modem to connect to other a...

Gidday, I use to have a nokia 6300 and was able to use it as an anolouge modem to dial other modems using the default string AT&F. I now have an E52, the modem initialises ok but comes up with modem error when starting to dial. I have the factory modem strings from both phones. Does anyone know how to change the strings?. Or what strings should I use to initialise my phone modem. Thanks

I have follow your instruction to connect to my ISP as it shows the following message:
Serial connection established.
using interface sppp0
connect: sppp0 <--> /dev/ttya
local IP address xxxxxxxx
remote IP address 1.1.1.1
But when I ping www.sun.com, it shows:
www.sun.com unknown.
I start Mozilla and it said www.sun.com not found etc...
What has gone wrong?
Do I have to configure some files such as:
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/hosts
/etc/hostname ?
or any other steps that can help me to connect to the internet?
Thanks...

Need example vi using AT commands for dialing the modem at the remote end

Can any one give example vi for dialing up a modem and sending data to remote end

Hi sindhu6,
Presuming that you are connected to your modem via a serial connection:
I did find a forum related to your enquiry: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/AT-commands-in-labview/td-p/1213335
And I did find an example from ni.com: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/2577
Basically, what you need to do is to find out what are the AT commands used for your modem and send the command over using VISA related functions (e.g. VISA Read VI). You can send the command in a sequantial method. You can do this by using the method found in the first link. The best would be that you can create a state machine where by each case/state will consists of commands that you need to run in a sequence (let's say a sequence of AT commands for sending a message via TCP/IP communication).
You can also use a sequence structure but I would not suggest that since you cannot stop the sequence half way and if your command is very long, this may look pretty messy for your code.
The main question is:
What is the version of your LabVIEW?
What is the modem that you are using and how is your hardware setup is going to be (e.g. how did you communicate with your modem)?
Thank you
Warmest regards,

How do I configure a dial up modem to connect to my ISP?

I'm new to Solaris. Just installed Solaris 10 on an AMD64 and I'm trying to configure an external (real) 56k modem to dial out. It works under Linux and I'm assuming it will work with Solaris too. I configured the serial port for dial out. Then what? I cannot find a simple explanation anywhere for how to configure the modem and dial out. Is there a dialer program hidden somewhere that I'm missing? Please help before I flee back to Windows. Thanks.

How to use Graphite Airport dial-up modem in Lion?

I'm helping my father in law troubleshoot an issue with his Graphite Base Station. He connects to the net via the built-in dialup modem and has recently updated to Lion. He's used to a pop-out menu that says "dial modem" or something when selecting his base station from the airport menu. Apparently, there is no such menu in 10.7 Lion. How can he dial his modem to connect in Lion? I've walked him through Airport Utility and all the settings say to use the built in modem.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

I am having the same issue. I have the white base station. Airport does work and works well without incident for my wireless printing. I only get the "disconnect" in the drop down menu. What I did for now is to go into the airport utility, select manual setup, select internet, select modem, and check the box that says automatically dial. While this seems to work for me, I do notice that while it will automatically dial, when you disconnect, it will automatically dial again. So, technically the airport will reconnect always. One way around this I suppose, as I do not care because I use my land line mostly for Internet access, is to go into the utility and uncheck the box when you do not want to connect or unplug the airport. Hope this helps. Otherwise, I am still trying to find a solution or go back to snow leopard.

What sort of dial-up modems does one use with a "Bionic Desk Lamp" iMac?

Yes, I still use dial-up (and indeed, my aging Performa 5215 is still on its factory 14.4 modem).
I'm planning on buying a used G4 iMac on eBay (see my posting in the OS 9 forum for related questions), but what sort of dial-up modem do I use, that will work in both OS 9 and OS X?

Outside of perhaps a handful of top-end machines, printing on special media, I've never seen inkjet output that looked any better than MicroDry output on comparable media. Moreover:
1. With the exception of hot-wax-jet systems, inkjet output is soggy, and takes time to become waterproof (assuming that ever happens without spraying varnish on the page); MicroDry output is as dry and waterproof as laser output.
2. Inkjet has the highest cost of consumables of any printing technology ever devised. If you use your printer like crazy, you rapidly empty the often-expensive cartridges. If you don't use it like crazy, the often-expensive cartridges clog and/or dry out. By contrast, laser toner and MicroDry ribbons have a once-opened shelf-life that is whole orders of magnitude greater than that of inkjet cartridges, and the only way to ruin them is to (laser) print so many blank pages you overflow the waste-toner receptacle, or (MicroDry) break the ribbon (and that can be fixed with about half an hour's work)
3. MicroDry is one of the few printing technologies that can print metallic colors and opaque white, and can also automatically varnish their output. The more advanced MicroDry models also have a dye sublimation mode (with optional varnish) that allows them to double as the cheapest-to-run dyesubs available.
The ALPS MicroDry printer line flopped in the marketplace for two reasons. First, they didn't offer PCL or PostScript, even as an option, and (especially in dyesub mode) host-based RIPping is a long, slow, memory-intensive process (that's been known to crash my long-suffering Performa 5215). Second, ALPS has absolutely no name recognition in the United States except among engineers and technicians. This meant that they were fighting an uphill battle just to get anybody to look at their products.
Moreover, the few attempts ALPS made at strategic alliances (to overcome the lack of name recognition) were with a company (Citizen) that isn't known for much beyond digital watches and (maybe) hand calculators, and a company (Epson) that had strong financial reasons to suppress MicroDry, color laser, and anything else that competed with inkjet.
On that last note, may I point out that when a color laser printer small enough, cheap enough, and quiet enough to be classified as an "inkjet-killer" finally hit the market last year, it came from Samsung, a company that had name recognition, but absolutely no inkjet assets whatsoever.

Using a Bluetooth phone as a dial up modem.

Hi,
When setting up my phone with my MacBook I'm given two options: Connect to the internet using GPRS, or use it as a phone to dial in to a provider.
In Canada data access is very expensive, but would using my phone as a dial-up modem count on my bill as data access or would it show up as a regular call?
Thanks.
P.S. My wireless provider is Rogers, if that matters.

I think SIG has the answer, but I tried to find out on their various sites... seems that until you take the Hook, they won't tell you what the Line costs, then the cost of the Sinker will only be revealed once you get the Bill!
I think if they've picked up any traits from down here in GW land, that whatever YOU want to do will cost more than expected, and use the worst option for you!

Using a dial-up modem

I guess I'm posting this out of sheer desperation, although it sounds like there isn't anything that can be done. I moved to the DC area last November and before signing an 18-month lease, I contacted Verizon directly, and my building also contacted their local Verizon rep to ensure that I would have no problems using a dial-up modem connection. I was very upfront about what I needed the line for and was given every assurance that everything would be fine.
Unfortunately, my fax modem is prone to constant disconnects, and I've been told by Verizon tech support that they can't run copper to the premesis. I need the line to perform closed captioning for television. Closed captioning still uses antequated technology which involves the text of what's being said on the program to be transmitted from my home to the TV station via the phone lines. The modem regularly disconnects at 32 and 37 past the hour -- that's almost guaranteed -- as well as other times.
So long story short, Verizon tells me everything is fine until I sign a lease and sign up for service and tech support basically tells me there's nothing that can be done. It's my livlihood that's on the line and there's nothing I can do about it. If by some miracle someone knows of something I can do to make a data transmission connection stable on fiberoptic lines, I'd be very grateful. I've tried just about every fix I possibly can.
Thanks.

Some people find by changing the error correction settings or speed on the modems, you can improve the reliability of a modem over FiOS voice. Realistically it shouldn't be causing a problem. Have you tried tinkering with the modem's settings if at all possible?

Using USB port for dial up networking with mobile phone?

I am thinking of using my mobile phone as a dial up modem when i am away from home and it uses a data cable to the USB port. is there a way to use the USB port on a Mac as your source for the internet?
Thanks
Jason

well i dont have the cable yet i just was wondering if that would work. Yes it has bluetooth but i was told you cant use the bluetooth for a modem. Dont know why the phone has the option. How would i set up that option?

Using Terminal with a dial-up connection to a Unix server

Normally I use a cable modem at home to connect to a Unix server at work. All I have to do is fire up the Terminal application, type "telnet servername.domainname.com", and I am up and running.
A couple days ago my cable modem service died and it is going to take a week to get it fixed. Wanting to find a temporary alternative connection, I remembered that my PowerMac G5 came equipped with an Apple internal modem. I connected the modem to a phone line, went to the Network configuration panel in System Preferences, and configured the modem to dial-up the Unix server at work. Using the Internet Connect application, the modem can connect to the Unix server, but that application attempts to make a PPP connection, not a plain old-fashioned command-line Unix connection.
What I really want to do is use the Terminal application to dial-up the Unix server. Does anybody know how to do that?
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

You need to know more about how the server at the other end is configured.
Internet Connect will only manage an internet connection, typically via PPP. If the server at the other end is not configured as a PPP server then you're not going to get anywhere with it.
If the server is set to use the modem as a standard serial interface then you'll need a terminal emulator that can manage the serial ports (terminal.app is not such an app).
Fortunately there are many options, including the venerable ZTerm. This will let you use the modem to dial a number and log in over a simple serial line.

File sharing with Leopard through dial up modem on Performa 6400

There are some really important files that i need to get off my Macintosh Performa 6400 (running 8.6) but the only connection that my iMac G5 (running 10.5.4) and the performa share is the dial up modem. I can't get an internet connection on the performa since we have broadband and it does not have an ethernet port, so that's out of the question. Some of the files are too big to fit on a floppy and my iMac doesn't have a floppy drive anyways.
I turned on file sharing on both computers, but they don't see each other being as they're connected through the dial up modems. After having searched up and down Google with no answer, my question is: is there anyway i can file share through the dial up modem using the aforementioned configuration?
Since I'll only need to do this once, I don't want to have go out and buy something in order to get this to work.
Thank you for any and all help you guys may provide.

I realise that you didn't, originally, intend to spend anything but, if you have a spare PCI slot left in your 6400. I wonder if maybe installing a Keyspan USB PCI card would help. That way the 6400 could communicate direct with the G5 and save the hassle of removing its HD.
http://www.allmacshop.co.uk/proddetail/19184/KeyspanUSB_PCI_Card_2-Port_Mac_Win__UPCI-2/
The manufacturer's part number is UPCI-2.
I installed one of these in my PowerMac 6500/300. Turned to be one of my better decisions as I was then able then to import photos direct from my digital camera and all sorts.
Or there's this which is better still-
http://www.macheaven.co.uk/?page=proddetail&prod=1343
Check compatibility with your 6400 though as I don't have one of these so I don't know if it works or not. Don't see why it shouldn't though.

Need a dial up modem for G3 Beige Tower

I have an ethernet card for my G3 Beige Tower but I need a dial up modem so I can hook it up for my mom. Anyone know where I can get one? Milwaukee

The internal 56K Apple/GV modem card that was a Build-to-Order option for the beige G3s offers the convenience of no additional desktop clutter, no extra power supply to bother with, and nothing to turn ON/OFF. It plugs into the brown slot on the audio or A/V personality card. You can see one listed on this page, but the $99.77 price tag is absurd, in spite of its scarcity now. When I stopped buying them a few years ago, used ones could be purchased for about $35. The internal 56K modem card functioned identically as its external Global Village 56K counterpart. If you have the time to keep checking eBay, you may find an internal Apple/GV 56K card eventually show up for auction. Just be sure that it matches the photo shown on the page I linked. Some sellers (mistakenly or not) identify the software-based "Apple GeoPort" modem card as the 56K modem card - which it definitely isn't. For a reliable 56K external modem, the US Robotics 56K v.90/x2 (model 5689-03) was always my choice for the internet and downloads. The Global Village TelePort 56K v.90 external modems with attached modem cable are also a good choice for the beige G3s. These modems are discontinued, but you can find them showing up at eBay or thrift stores. The current US Robotics v.92 external modem (black color and marketed for PCs) can be used with your beige, but (as Jan wrote) you'll need to find a Mac modem cable (DB-25 to mini-DIN8) for it. Additionally, a custom INIT string must be used to disable a couple of unsupported v.92 features, in order for it to function properly. After much trial and error, I arrived at one that did the trick.

Can't create a dial up modem connection

hi...
need help here.
i have lenovo 3000 notebook V200 series with build in conexant modem, i have installed the modem driver correctly, i have query the modem and it shows the result successfully. but why does vista doesn't detect the modem when i'm trying to create a dial up modem connection ?. i also use the wireless 3G modem provided by AT&T. can anyone help me ? thank you...
sincerely
arifin

what do you mean? you can't create dial connection or you dont heard dial tone when you try to connect? Did you see under hardware devices. Does it show moderm at all? Try to hook up phone line to it and listen to dial tone? if It does. It would work fine. or you can upgrade moderm driver to see if you can create connection again.
Good luck to you

Dial-up Modem w/Digital Voice

Can a dial-up modem be used with FiOS Digital Voice? I support a number of remove locations across the country that only have dial-up access (via pcAnywhere). Thanks.

I wish that someone in the engineering department would come up with a hi capacity battery solution that would make the 8 hour battery last longer to maybe up to a week, because that's when power outages do happen unless it was a major disaster such as tornado, hurricane. I am very disappointed that FiOS cannot come out with a 4G/FiOS router device that can switch between the 2 services when the power is out. When I get my USB dial up modem I cannot wait to try it out with another ISP just to make sure I am ready when the power is out during next year's summer weather and these strange storms such as Sandy.
Using the USB dial up @56k modem via digital voice will only last 8 hours which I am going only going to use it for about 3 hours to get get the information I need. But like I said We need a 4G/FiOS wireless router that switches automatically to 2G/3G/4G/ when the power is out and the router runs on a battery as well and when the power comes back on then it comes back to FiOS. And we should be able to get a discount and have it part of the bundle.
