Silica1.2

Hi, does anyone got it working with the Apple USB Modem? Any tips on that? Thanks, Bruno

I've been using Silica for a long time (maybe a year) in my eMac usb2.0 with the internal modem, and works great... but now i'm trying to install on my old iMac 400DV, and i can't get the modem work....i think this modem isn't compatible with caller ID but i'm not so sure about it... otherwise, the app is great and very unintrusive

Sorry, forgot to add my e-mail address. But myabe that's for the best, because I hate spam. Go here for contact info: http://charlatan.blogspot.com/

For some non-US folks, in order to get Silica to work with a phone splitter, you'll need the following info (based on German standards): TAE-F 6 (4) [i.e. a 6-slot plug with 4 contact points] to WE 6 (4) (RJ II) [i.e. the typical "western" square modem plug with 4 tines]. The numbers on the left of the equals sign are the TAE-F contact points; those on the right are their RJ II correspondents. 1a = 3 2b = 4 3W = 2 4E = 5 I bought mine in Marktkauf, and this is all clearly labeled on the back of the packaging. But be careful: there are a lot of adapters that look exactly alike though they will not work. The UK phone plug is just a gigantic, flattened version of the RJ II (the contacts should all correspond like to like), so you can pick up an adapter at any Dixon's and use it with the RJ II/RJ II modem cable that came bundled with your Mac. Please e-mail me if you'd like a photo of the adapter just to make sure.

Hi Greg, It would be really great if Silica 1.1.1 worked for me. I'm in the UK. Have you found anyone in the UK who this works for? Actually, I'm subscribe to Vonage over in the UK. I know caller ID comes through because it shows up on my phone. The modem seems to be working fine dialing out. It even recognizes that there is a call dialing in but it just reports "No Caller ID info received". Any ideas? Modem details: Modem Model: Dash2 Interface Type: USB Modulation: V.92 SKU Name: Euro Hardware Version: 1.0F Firmware Version: APPLE VERSION 2.6.6 Driver: InternalUSBModem.kext (v2.6.6) Country: B4 (United Kingdom) If it helps I'm running OS X 10.4.2 on the following: Machine Name: Power Mac G4 Machine Model: PowerMac3,6 CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (3.2) Number Of CPUs: 2 CPU Speed: 1.25 GHz Memory: 1.5 GB Many thanks for your effort. Cheers Daniel

0-for-2 now on making sure the demo code is out of the release. 1.1 is fixed now.

I get every 10 seconds a call notify from "Noonan Jerry 08 606741003" :(

To developer: could you be kind to confirm the following modem's compatibility and add it to the appropriate table (compatible/not compatible) on your modem compatibility page? Modem Model: LastDash Interface Type: USB Modulation: V.92 SKU Name: UCJ Hardware Version: 4.0 Firmware Version: APPLE VERSION 2.6.6 Driver: InternalUSBModem.kext (v2.6.6) Country: B5 (United States, Latin America) It's found in Powerbook G4 17" 1.5GHz, and others that were released in Spring 2004. Notice the LastDash vs. MicroDash which is listed as compatible in your table. That would resolve all the doubletalk and uncertainities. Thanks.

I'd very much like it if people who have modems that don't work with Silica would contact me at the included support address (or provide contact information in their feedback here). I will certainly work with people to get their modems supported.
