Embio Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 System Profiler 'sees' the Apple dial up modem under 'USB' - but Internet Connect (from Leopard or Tiger) refuses to work with it. Are there any workarounds or third party dialers people know of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiryuSingh Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I have a similar problem with a Huawei E220 hsdpa usb modem. The driver and app install fine, the app can communicate with the modem, but when I try to connect/dial I get an error. The following errors in the console: 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:30 pppd[1282] pppd 2.4.2 (Apple version 304) started by root, uid 502 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:30 kernel ::acquirePort: - Start read.! 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:31 ccl[1284] Apple Internal 56K Modem script Version 2.1 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:35 ccl[1284] CCLExit: -6019 (Modem error, modem not responding.) 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:35 pppd[1282] Connect script failed 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:36 kernel ::privateWatchState: Port is not active. 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:36 kernel ::dequeueData: - Interrupted! 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:37 kernel ::privateWatchState: Port is not active. 6/29/07 Jun 29, 11:47:37 kernel ::dataReadComplete: Read complete io error.

Embio Posted June 29, 2007 Author Share Posted June 29, 2007 this is really strange and annoying, it also means I'm spending next to no time in leopard at the moment. Is it mentioned in the changelog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kagaku Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I've been having a lot of difficulty as well, though mine at least works with some effort. I'm using a Motorola RAZR v3xx as a modem via USB or Bluetooth (HSDPA, yay!) and it works fine the first time I set it up, but to set it up I need to add the connection in Network settings, then goto Internet Connect.app and change the modem script to the appropriate one (the modem script setting in Network prefs seems to have no effect). Once I do that I can connect just fine. But.. After I unplug the phone from my macbook the settings no longer work. When I plug the phone back in and click Connect, it tells me it can't find the device. Every time I plug the phone in I need to reinstall the phone, basically. It works, but definitely not an ideal solution. It seems this build of Leopard is smack dab in the middle of a network/dial up networking overhaul. Seems to be for the best though, I'm loving the new interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried changing the modem script through Internet Connect.app but I get the exact same error as mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embio Posted June 29, 2007 Author Share Posted June 29, 2007 just a thought - if we log in as root does that help? I'm away from my external drive with leopard on it at the minute, but once I get home I will grab it and try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No dice, still giving Modem error. Ran Internet Connect as root, hit connect... and IT WORKS! And here I was about to boot the install DVD and restore my Tiger backup Guess I'll stick with the new cat a little longer. edit: Did a chmod +s on Internet Connect and it works like a charm now.

kagaku Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 So far it's working perfect for me. Just did a chmod +s on Internet Connect.app and all has been well. I'll report back if I've got any more issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embio Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 I logged into Leopard as Root, connected, then logged back into my user account and it was fine. strange thing in the root though - no spotlight and not copying files from one location to another in Finder. any one else seen this??

Alexis Susset Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi all, This is my first message on InsanelyMac forum, so first of all Hi there! Unfortunetly, my first message is about some issues I have with Leopard 9a466 and Bluetooth 3G dailing. The problem I have is that when I setup a device (even as root), I can go through all the parameters and it seems to work fine. Later, when I try to dial the connection, it fails with the following messages in /var/log/ppp.log (debug is enabled) Tue Jul 24 09:44:39 2007 : Connect script failed Tue Jul 24 09:45:03 2007 : Apple Internal 56K Modem script Version 2.1 Tue Jul 24 09:45:04 2007 : CCLWrite : AT\13 Tue Jul 24 09:45:04 2007 : CCLMatched : OK\13\10 Tue Jul 24 09:45:04 2007 : CCLWrite : ATI4\13 Tue Jul 24 09:45:07 2007 : CCLWrite : AT&F1E0W2S95=45S0=0&D3S7=120+MS=11,1,300,33600\13 Tue Jul 24 09:45:07 2007 : CCLMatched : ERROR\13\10 Tue Jul 24 09:45:07 2007 : CCLWrite : AT&F\13 Tue Jul 24 09:45:08 2007 : CCLExit: -6019 (Modem error, modem not responding.) As you can see, pppd / Internet Connect is using the wrong Script, it is using the Apple Internal 56K script version 2.1 while it should be using the Sony Ericsson GPRS script. If I go into the System Preferences, then Network and change the script in my Bluetooth connection, it doesn't save the change. as soon as I click Apply and go back to Advanced, the script is back to Apple Internal 56k. Has anyone experienced this problem? What would you advise? What I am trying right now is to reset my Bluetooth and Network configuration back to default. So far, I haven't found how to do that. Perhaps as well, I could manually generate a ppp config and start pppd manually? Thanks in advance for your support! -- Alexis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAC IN TOSH Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Hi everyone, I don't know if this is the correct forum to place this question, but anyways I had installed iAtkos v1.0i r2 on my hp dv6735ee and got everything working except for my wireless card and Telephone line.

Guest Hefisots73 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 A non-gui method of configuring and using dial-up connections There is a command-line tool for creating and managing ppp connections called "pppconfig" which works very well. It is a standard Debian/Ubuntu package. Once youve created your dial-up profile, containing the dial-up number, modem initialization, and other options you can use other programs to connect and disconnect: To connect to a profile named "MyISP" Code: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
