Does anyone know of any solutions for Power PC running OS 10.5?

[sulacco]

I've built a patched pppd for Tiger, if anybody is interested just tell me.

Works like a charm.

I gotta try this.. Just got tetherberry working but bluetooth would be nice and free also

[xoxoxKN]

mine works like a charm! on tiger with blackberry bold at&t straight out of the box... didn't change a single thing and followed the instructions! added the tethering plan to my acct just cause i'm scared of the $3,000+ bills i read about online... will try it for the month, and if i don't like it - i'll take it off!

Seems to be working like a charm... Just upgraded to .282 tonight and got this working.. Its a lovely day for blackberry bolds and Mac computers

THANKS!

Can anyone with ATT confirm whether doing this without a tethering plan runs up extra charges on your bill or not?

I'm having a few issues and wondering if anyone can help.

I'm not in a 3G area at the moment. My Bold reads EDGE with 4 bars.

I installed the PPPD patch before anything, then paired the devices successfully. However, I can't seem to select under modem other Vendor: Blackberry 3G CID1. Instead, I only get a Verizon option. I also tried using generic 3G and it didn't work.

I'm wondering if the problem is the fact that I'm not in a 3G area when I paired my mac and Bold. I'm thus not getting the correct modem script?

Any help appreciated.

[msaririan]

Another way of asking the same above question is: do I need 3G to tether?

[msaririan]

Never mind. I answered my own question and fixed the bug. Just a matter of putting the appropriate script in the appropriate directory.

Note to self: read ALL instructions, not bits and pieces.

[mrmoon]

help please, have followed everything on here but the modem thingy at the top of my screen says no modem configurations were found ???

[thejgeffect]

This worked perfectly on my first Bold but now on my second it won't let me change the Vendor from Generic or the Model from Bluetooth LAN, these options seems to have greyed themselves out when trying to do a Bluetooth set up... any ideas anyone?

Hi csete,

Thanks for your good work

Sorry to bother you but can you/anyone see where the problem would appear to lie in my setup. I believe I've followed all the instructions, updated the PPPD. Re-paired the phone etc and all to no avail.

Anyone managed to get this working on Orange, UK?
They seem to use "orangeinternet" and blank username and password fields.

Many thanks

Hi csete,

Sorry to bother you but can you/anyone see where the problem would appear to lie in my setup. I believe I've followed all the instructions, updated the PPPD. Re-paired the phone etc and all to no avail.

I'm going to be honest I have no idea what any of that code was. Butttttt you may want to check out this more complete thread on how to BT tether your Mac/Bold... I am pretty certain there are APN settings for Orange in the thread also.

The code is from the PPP log to try and track down the reason for not connecting.

For a while, it almost appears if it's connected then it finally gives up. This made me wonder if it's simple the AP name/username/password combination.

Thanks for trying but I have all the pairing etc working, it is the negotiation that appears to be failing and unfortunately, that link doesn't have any info for Orange UK.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks

Help i keep getting a PPP negotiation error:
- This error is most likely being caused by the connection being between the Blackberry and the Mac over the PPP going to fast. Thanks to Et-Setera this problem has been solved.
Go to: Et-Setera � BlackBerry Bold PPPD Replacement and download the installation package. Once the package is installed the error should be no more.
NOTE: THe PPPD patch is for Intel mac only.

I'm not sure what Orange is, but your AP name/username/password combo may be found in here: Carrier specific APN/TCP settings - BlackBerryFAQ

Sorry if this is repeating stuff you already tried or knew.

[ikiji]

PPPD already updated

Orange is a major UK carrier.

That's what I was saying ... the link for the Carrier Specific APN details does NOT contain Orange UK's details.

[thejgeffect]

hmmm what AP name/username/password combo are you trying to use?

[ikiji]

Got it!!

Well, in all of Orange's literature and elsewhere on the web, the APN is "orangeinternet" and the username and password fields are blank.

However, thanks to another post I found on here I tried "user" and "pass" respectively and am now up and running.

I cannot categorically say whether the PPPD patch made a difference or not because it looks like I had the wrong username and password, and maybe when I get some time I'll roll back to the std PPPD and try again to help others (BUT right now I'm just delighted it's working)

Thanks to everyone who suggested hints and tips, much appreciated.

[ikiji]

hmmm what AP name/username/password combo are you trying to use?

Pretty much everywhere/everything I've read has suggested:

APN: orangeinternet
Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>

BUT for those struggling, please try

APN: orangeinternet
Username: user
Password: pass

[thejgeffect]

Yep, those were the ones listed on this international TCP site I found.

Here are many international APN/TCP settings for anyone interested:

Carrier internet Settings (Apn Gateway, etc) - Pinstack.com - where Blackberry Professionals Connect!

Glad you got it working.

[littlefaywd]

I don't have a tethering plan, and it still works. I just wouldn't go around downloading movies and stuff

[ikiji]

Thanks thejgeffect ... I see that site lists <blank> for both the username and password ... confusing but hey it works

[big_adventure]

Hi all,

I'm using two different MBA's, a rev 1 and a rev 2, running 10.5.7 with the modified PPPD. I've got a Bold running .282. I get 100% connection and functionality on Orange France (12 for 12), with no added options script. Without the modded PPPD, I never managed to get connected with any .2xx rev and these computers. Thanks csete!

If anyone cares, I'm using Orange's recommended APN settings(Orange/orange/orange), without any kind of tethering contract, just with their default BB data plan (BIS and unlimited WAP surfing - Orange France does not give you the BB Browser, as far as I can tell).

[KBV1]

Hey,

I have read this entire thread to try and figure out why tethering doesn't seem to want to want to work. I have installed the new scripts and followed the set by step guide on ** to set it up and im still getting the pppd error. For Vodafone UK i have tried

tel:wap.vodafone.uk
username: [email protected]
p/w : user

and also tried
vodafone,
user: wap
p/w wap

Any ideas why im still getting this error.

I have a MacBook Pro running 10.5.7 and bold running .282. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
