If the upgrade customized the configuration for auto dialing it can be changed by opening the configuration panel of the modem. This can be accessed by navigating to 192.168.1.1 using a browser. The username and password will be usually 'admin' without the quotes. Inside the control panel, navigate to a section for WAN setup. There will be a list of WAN interfaces there. Delete the one with VPI/VCI = 0/35. Save and reboot the modem, everythiong should be back to normal. You might have to manually set your IP address to 192.168.1.x. (x is any >> value between 2 and 254). >> >> > How to do that? > http://www.onlinehowto.net/Tutorials/System/How-to-change-my-IP-address-in-Network-Manager-Linux/812 The IP address of the computer can be changed in Ubuntu (which I'm using now) through the NetworkManager Applet or by editing /etc/network/interfaces http://www.onlinehowto.net/Tutorials/System/How-to-change-my-IP-address-in-Network-Manager-Linux/812 http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ Regards Ajith Sen ----------------------- Benjamin Franklin: They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security. -- "Freedom is the only law".
