I have been trying to get the Rednet cable to work on a modpack that my friends and I play with and they do not seem to want to connect

Here is an imgur link to a screenshot: http://imgur.com/uoym4ZR .

We are running ComputerCraft 1.6.3 and MFR 2.7.9 .

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

For versions of ComputerCraft beyond 1.58, there is no built-in support for any existing bundled cables. An API has been added to allow other mods to register their bundled cables with ComputerCraft. To my knowledge, no mods have yet done this. You may be able to find "glue" mods that do so, but I'm not sure if any are stable/released.

Actually, people have spoken with Skyboy about adding support for the bundled cable API to MFR, and he said that he never plans on doing it.
If I recall, he said that he provides the network, and thought it was the job of the clients to provide the support. I don't see MFR support being re-added anytime soon, if at all.
