Troubleshooting Mac OS X 10.2.4: Dial-up problems and old .kext files
Apparently, some readers had problems with yesterday's reported package solution to dial-up reliability problems under Mac OS X 10.2.4.
The package was intended to replace six files found in the directory /System/Library/Extensions, with older versions:
- InternalModemSupport.kext
- InternalUSBModem
- PPP.kext
- PPPoE.ppp
- PPPSerial.ppp
- PPTP.ppp
If you are having dial-up problems, try replacing these six files with those contained on a Mac OS X 10.2.3 installation. Alternatively, you can use the shareware utility Pacifist to extract the files from an older Mac OS X updater or your original Jaguar (Mac OS X 10.2) CD.
