I've had this TiPB for about a year now, and I'm not sure if I've
ever tried to use it on a dialup connection before. I've got
DSL/Airport at home, and high speed network and wireless at the
University, so maybe I haven't tried to use the modem before. At any
rate, I tried to use it yesterday and even though the TCP/IP and
Remote Access settings were correct, I get an error message saying
that there are no ports available. Opening the Modem Control Panel
verifies that it can't see any ports. I thought it might have been
software related so I booted into the virginal emergency OS I have on
a different partition and it's the same thing - no modem port seen.
I'm starting to think it's hardware related. Anyone ever seen this or
have any suggestions as to what might be wrong? I've got AppleCare on
this thing, so getting it fixed isn't going to be more than an
inconvenience, but if it's something in software I've overlooked, I'd
rather it was that than a hardware problem. But I'm not very hopeful
now.
