I have a user here with a MacBook Pro that as soon as she clicks on
the "connect" button to use her Apple external modem (purchased and
supplied with MacBook Pro)instantly causes her machine to lockup
with the multi-lingual "you must restart your computer kernel crash.
config seems fine, setting correct, System profiler sees and
correctly identifies the Apple USB modem.
Have run FSCK, repair permissions and disk repair (while tethered
via firewire target mode) no problems noted or repaired.
tried "downgrading" the modem version without joy
literally new out of box and doing this.
What does /Library/Logs/panic.log say?
For the (somewhat) technical explanations, check out:
