Lot of posts related to Mac lately! Today, I wanted to get online from home and thought of hooking up my Reliance phone via the data cable. The rconnect software works well on Windows and Linux, but I was not sure about Mac. So I plugged one end of the cable into the phone and the other on the USB port of the Mac. Went to System Preferences -> Network and it told me that the system has detected the LG CDMA USB Modem and I should configure it!
I tried it out, but the default modem driver did not work. So I took my pick and selected an “au CDMA” driver. And to my surprise, it worked!
The dial up settings are simple:
- The number to dial is #777
- Username and password are your mobile phone number
Good to be connected this way. Though the speed is not high, it’s workable. The main advantage is I can take it almost anywhere in the country and still be connected!
I am trying to connect my reliance data card with Apple Mackbook Pro latest version. But no luck.. can anyone help please ?
Wow, finally some concrete info, but seems to be a few years old. My aunt is visiting and I am having problems getting my reliance netconnect to work on her mac os 10.5.8
I’ll try the things mentioned here and let you guys know. Else, if someone has any other solution, please post.
cheers.
