I have RoadRunner DialAccess. I would like to get my Quadra 605 connected to the internet with my SupraExpress 33.6 modem.
I have tried PPP and it doesn't work. Does anybody else have RoadRunner DialAccess and have gotten it to work on a 68k? I would like to get this Quadra online. I would like to have a real 68k access the internet. thanks in advance for the help._________________

I forgot to mention that I am using MacOS 8.1 on this Quadra 605.
I dunno if the RAM matters, but it has 20MB in it._________________

DOn't you have an OS 7.5 or 8.1 CD? because usually everything you need to connect to the internet is on there...Official 68k videographer

i haven't tried FreePPP yet, but i do know tha RR DialAccess didn't like the regular PPP that was installed when I installed OT/PPP.
Keep in mind I couldnt get it to connect without their software in Windows either. I was just wondering if anybody found a way to connect. I could patch it through to the internet via LAN but i can't find an LC PDS Ethernet card and I don't do eBay._________________

Cory, remember you didn't wanna send me the whole CD. You only gave me the installer. I don't have all that stuff. Luckily SmartKid88 gave me a link on where to find it on Apple's website. I CAN dial but my ISP doesn't like to use standard PPP or something. _________________

Have you created the PPP script needed to connect to RoadRunner DialAccesss? See the bottom of http://www.visorvillage.com/boards/General/messages/4580.html for details on the configuraiton and PPP script that they used to get a Visor to work on RoadRunner.Best wishes!

I was using my Quadra 840av for a long while, with dial up.I don't know if dial up differs US from Uk. I use Powergen & they babysat me through the process though this was hardly nessacary. What you need is; DNS number(s)
dial up number
username
password That should be it AFAIK good luck, my 840av was certainly competent(running os 8.1), but you will smile a little more using a 56k modem. shaktiman Quadra 840av, prettymuchmaxedout8xcd drive

Well first off, my phone line is low quality and has issues. I never got anything faster than 24k off of it with any modem. I'll be happy once i can get myself a network card for it. _________________

I have the "Apple Macintosh CD Ver.2" Which came with the 6100, 7100, and 8100 series Power Macintosh computers. It just so happens to have OS 7.5 on it. But I wanted 8.1 and as I already mentioned I CAN dial to the phone line. Its just establishing a connection to the ISP. It currently it will connect, talk to the ISP then after a minute or two it will disconnect. Yes I did find that script... it didn't work.I suppose nobody else here uses RoadRunner DialAccess? I wish these ISPs would just use regular old PPP. I mean, this is rediculous. _________________
