Well I have a sagem fast 800 but i can't use it under mac. I installed the latest drivers and followed the official guide but it (the guide) showed different things from what really happened. I use the version 10.4.7 of mac. Can anybody help me plz. also there is a chance of having chosen the wrong drivers. can somebody help me plz!?!?
PS: I tried to search but nothing helpful came out.
PS2: I am new to Macs!
PS3: I show somewhere that there are drivers for this modem available only for power pcs. I don't have mac installed in a power pc. So....

Welcome to the MacNN Forums!
We'll need to know more before we can help you. First, when you connect to the modem, does your Mac recognize it? Second, what Mac are you using? Third, have you made triple sure that you have microfilters on EVERY OTHER TELEPHONE JACK?

First, when you connect to the modem, does your Mac recognize it? After I have installed the drivers, both lights of the modem open. Probably this means that mac recognize it. ( was that what you meant?) Second, what Mac are you using? I use v.10.4.7. I have them installed in a simple PC. Third, have you made triple sure that you have microfilters on EVERY OTHER TELEPHONE JACK? Yes as I can connect when I boot in Windows XP (so it is probably not a problem with the line)

What I meant about "recognize" was did the computer show you that it had a new device installed-I'm not sure how that would show up myself.
And as for what Mac, I meant which Mac computer-this may have some bearing on the problem, but I doubt it. In my experience and from what I've read, USB network devices are not the best option around; ethernet connections are THE way to go for reliability (and they don't need a driver, either).
