ibook2 first rev modem

[Bastien Nocera]

Hi,

I've finally been able to get the iBook dual-USB's i2c modem to work and
dialup to my ISP.

The problem lies in the modem's firmware. If you haven't updated the
modem firmware, the modem won't be able to connect at v.90 for some
ISPs. (I verified by dialling up from MacOS X, it didn't work for v90,
but did for v34).

So, to get it to work, reboot under MacOS 9, and run the firmware
updater (that you can find on Apple's Tech Support website).

Cheers

PS: Here is the modem init line I use:
\d\d\d\d\d\d\dAT&FE0W1Q0V1X4&C1&K3S95=1&D3S7=75S0=0+MS=11,1,300,33600

I tried adding an M0 somewhere, but couldn't get the modem to shut up.
Any ideas ?

What was the problem? I'm using my ibook's modem since september without
any issue....

I have not updated my ibook's modem firmware and connect almost always
at v90 with three distinct ISP's.

It's the init string MacOS X uses

Couldn't connect to the isp, "HANGUP" just after link ttyS0 and ppp0
together.
