Apple Care Question

[Automaggot68]

one thought, have you tried a new ethernet cable? I would recommend that before calling into applecare.

I have not.
I really don't think that is the issue, as it works fine with my Fathe'rs PC.
But I will try that!
Oh man. If that was the issue, that'd be awesome.

I recently have run into problem with my 12' iBook.

You have a 12 foot iBook? Holy crap...

Well you keep using the work modem and ethernet like they are related.

RJ11 jack = modem port.
RJ45 jack (larger than RJ11) = ethernet port.

Try a different cable (either phone for modem, or cat5 ethernet for ethernet). The termination on the cable is far more likley to fail than the jack itself. If that does nothing and you have apple care, go see apple. They are not looking for any excuse to charge you. They take care of you. Tell them you treat your PB nicley and that you are having problems with the ethernet/modem jack.

I've never mentioned the RJ11 jack in any of my posts.
Only the RJ45 and the USB jack.

Send it in, youve done nothing wrong and the component is faulty.

Try using another cable.

If that doesn't work, get Apple to replace the logic board

I disconnected the ethernet cable from the modem

That's all I'm commenting on.
