| Useless internet connect warning I am having no connection problems with my home network, all is working fine. However, whenever my G5 wakes from sleep I get a message that "Internet Connect has failed because you have not provided a telephone number" (that's paraphrased, not exact). An empty modem jack is displayed with this warning. How do I rid myself of this annoying and useless message? I believe it started appearing after I started using Entourage (coincidence?), but I find no settings in Entourage that would suggest I would be using the internal modem. Thanks for any tips.

| Are you not using the modem for anything at all? Then I'd remove the thing from Network Connections altogether.

| No, I'm not using the modem and would just as soon not have it. I have been unable to find a dialog box that has a modem option to remove so I can lose this nagging alert. |

Uncheck any other connections you do not use like Bluetooth as well. Hope this helps. Mike
