[QUOTE="JanniEd, post: 1041510, member: 152063"] [b]modem[/b] I tried something and it worked, somewhat. Instead of shutting down, I restarted then went into MacOS. The modem stayed lit. Everywhere there is a place to select modem, it is grayed out. I turned off Airport. No luck. Now, in one place there is room for a DNS entry. I know IP address and it is static. Let me run this by you: He had this box on his office network. Could it be he forgot to undo that? I know next to nothing about networking computers. Well, I do but not enough to fix this. Now, since the MacOS does recognize my external modem, off or on, in hardware, perhaps I need to download the Mac drivers? OR do I need to purchase an external Mac modem? Somewhere, I saw a reference to one. Jann [/QUOTE]
