running osx 10.3.2 PANTHER

the first versions had quite a few bugs. i would strongly suggest grabbing the latest public version (1107) off this forum and trying that first. also, what are your computer specs? you need to make sure that your computer is not below minimum specs. tey the updates and see what happens.

Have you tried to use an external hardware supply for your SSL box?
Stuart Ramdeen 1:44 PM - 7 August, 2004
calm down! :-) take a deep breath and relax. First of all, as nik39 said are you using the power supply for the box? I'm running EXACTLY the same powerbook as you and it doesn't provide enough power for the SSL box. You need to get a dc adapter as stated in the manual and plug that bad boy in. Lack of power would also explain why you're not getting any thru mode.

ps, why haven't you upgraded to 10.3.4?

kingrevo, it seems like your issue was resolved. It would be cool if you just posted to this thread that everything is okay, that is the least what we who tried to help you could expect, some feedback.
