post OSX10.5 Migration Modem won't Dial

I always keep dial-up for a backup.


I just used Migration Assistant to migrate my OSX10.4 to OSX10.5 on my internal HD.(Both are partitions on internal HD)


The dial-up works fine on 10.4 and the pre-Migration 10.5 but the Modem will not dial or connect with the new Migrated 10.5.8


Console says :


iMac-2 kernel[0]: InternalUSBModem::setPowerState(1)

iMac-2 ccl[668]: Script parsing failed after 2 lines

iMac-2 ccl[668]: CCLExit: -6024 (No @ORIGINATE label)

iMac-2 pppd[664]: Connect script failed


Appreciate any help with solving this problem.

Hi, in System Preferences>Network, Does Internal Modem show up there?


Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...


http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712


10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8…


System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.



10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x/10.8.x instructions...


System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.


The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.


For 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...


208.67.222.222

208.67.220.220


(There may be better or faster DNS numbers in your area, but these should be a good test).

Click OK.

Hello BDAqua,


Thanks for the suggestion but I have already tried adding those DNS numbers with no success.They are the same DNS numbers I have used successfully in 10.4 for the last few years.


I then changed them to the same DNS numbers used in my original successful pre-Migration 10.5 which are 207.69.188.187 and 207.69.188.186.


None of these changes have allowed the Modem to dial or connect.


There is no error message , just "connecting...connecting...connecting............disconnecting...disconnecting. ..disconnecting

Yes 10.4 is still there on another partition.


v.34 does same, no dial, no connect. I have the Modem sound turned and it never has even dialed on 10.5 Migration. 10.4 on other partition dials and connects


No Fax settings.


It doesn't report busy, just continues to say "connecting..."


Steady dial tone on land line.
