I had a script that I used in OS 9 and before that would simply start

I'm not able to find something that will allow me to do the same thing
in OS X.

I can connect to the ISP with the following:

tell application "Internet Connect" to connect

BUT... it launches the application.

What am I missing?.. or where else can I look for commands to connect,
disconnect and get status?

Use these lines:

tell application "Internet Connect" to connect configuration "Internal
Modem"

tell application "Internet Connect" to disconnect configuration "Internal
Modem"

Or whatever the string is for your configuration you're using.

Thanks Conrad for your response. This still launches "Internet Connect". I'm trying to find a way to connect/disconnect WITHOUT launching an application because of the unnecessary launch time.

Somewhere there has got to be a command, either in an application or a scripting addition that will do this. Anything else... Jim
