Well Ron, it seems your modem is "internal". That usually means a "winmodem", which is nothing but some software emulating the real thing, i.e. an external modem. >From what I've learnt here on the list, setting up those winmodems is a pain in the neck. It's generally wiser to lay down a few bucks for a real modem. That way the modem does what it is meant for, thus sparing the CPU. I don't recall anyone having problems with an external modem. The setup is usually a breeze : just let kppp (the dialer) query for a modem, and it'll find it ! HTH Kaj Haulrich Denmark
