Hey folks .. For weeks I have been trying on and off to set up my airport network again ... It was running fine back in NYC using a hub and a cable modem .. But I have never used it with dial up .. So .. I used airport setup to restart the AP station with all the required settings ... I unchecked "automatic dialling" since I do not want that (very restricted time, I cannot have some pop up window cause a dial in and waste of time .. ) ... It says in the help file that if I want to go manually I just open internet connect and say "connect" .. But that keeps looking for a phone connection to the iBook .. Says "no dial tone" ... The ibook very clearly sees the AP station ... Running 10.2.4 What do I have to push to make the airport station dial up ? Is there still a way to "hear" what is going on (since there is a broad range of other errors that can occur here) Looking fwd to any good idea I hook the phoneline back into the ibook to send this out Cheers and thanks P
