Hi All,
I hope someone here could help me with my problem. i've install Mac OS X 10.4.1 on my Fujitsu-Siemens laptop funning Office XP Pro SP2, and it's working fine apart from the fact that i can't connect to the internet (which make the system actually uselss for me ).

I have Broadband from PIPEX here in Scotland and i am using USB ADSL Modem ( D-Link DSL-200 ) but i couldn't figure out how to enable the modem on my Mac system, i installed the Modem drvie (Mac 10.4.1 version from the included CD, also i downloaded another version from D-Link website) but i still can't see the ADSL USB Modem in the network options (as per the modem user manual) i also noticed that the system can't regonize my internal modem ( Realtek AC'97 ) so i can't even create simple dial-up connection !!

can you please help me to either solve my USB modem problem which will be the pefrect solution or at least enable Mac to find my internal modem for dial-up connection.

waiting for your valuble answers,

Cheers,

You best options are in order of preference (and price high to low) for a laptop :-
1. Find a supported wireless card, ditch the USB modem, and get an ADSL wireless router.
2. If you've got a working ethernet port ditch the USB modem and get an cheap ADSL router.
3. Wait and see if D-Link bring out IntelMac drivers for your USB modem, probably isn't going to happen any time soon if at all.
