zanemay Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 My modem is not working after installing AOL. There is a patch available at ftp://ftp.pc.ibm.com/pub/pccbbs/bp_thinkpad/mwregfix.exe However, I get an instant "page cannot be displayed error" when I try this site. It is recommended as the easy fix in several sites I have found. It seems to be the only source for the patch. Is there something special about accessing ftp sites? Thanks, Zane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straycat Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 Shouldn't be anything to it. I can reach and download the file. If you still can't, I could email it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 There is not so much special with ftp. Should work with most browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 I checked this for you using the command-line ftp. The file is not there and in fact the directory is corrupt on their server. >ftp ftp.pc.ibm.com ... 230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply. ftp> cd /pub/pccbbs/bp_thinkpad 250 CWD command successful. ftp> dir 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. total 0 226 Transfer complete. ftp: 9 bytes received in 0.00Seconds 9000.00Kbytes/sec. ftp> ls 200 PORT command successful. 550 Bad directory components ftp> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
