After loading on my iMAC, I can't connect to the internet. It dials, waits, and gets a PPP Connect message , LCP Failure. Anyone figure this one out?

The only time I saw that error was when I was using an incorrect username/password to log in. Make sure you are using the correct ones for your account.

Also make sure that you are specifying the IP addresses of your ISP's DNS servers. Unlike Mac OS 9, Mac OS X doesn't automatically pick these up during the login process.

Question USB ISDN modem doesn't work (?)

I have the same problem. I have checked many times all my settings and they are right. I just get the message "LCP failed" after waiting for a while.

I think my USB ISDN modem isn't working with Mac OS X because it doesn't seem to do react in anyway although the PPP application of Mac OS X displays the message "Connecting...". Can anyone help ?

G3/300 Mhz - 224 MB RAM
6 GB hard disk
Mac OS 8.6
Mac OS X (working fine except PPP connections)

I get the same - but only with one of my three ISPs - I have all my settings correct. If you just keep trying again again, about one in 20 connections get through.

I've been having a similar problem. I can get connected to my ISP but the browser and email doesn't recognize that it is connected. Perhaps it's a problem witht the IP address.
Please help.

Talking

Solved my own problem.
I put in the DSN numbers for my ISP and I can now connect.
In trying, however, I put an address in the IP address window and I got a LCP failure also. So I left it blank and it worked fine.
I hope that helps.
