	Hi Greta. Unfortunately there is a problem affecting the modems of
the new Apples so they have difficulty connecting to Chebucto. You can go
into the Modem properties and select V.42 rather than V.90 or V.92. This
will result in slower connections if it works.

	We contacted Apple Canada about this issue last October and at
their request gave them a record of an affected Apple computer trying to
connect to our service. To date we have heard no response from Apple. You
might want to try to contact them yourself as you are a paying customer
and might get some results from them. Apple Canada has a 1-800 number in
the phone book and our communications with them last October was listed as
case # 53146503.
