Re: [newbie] Problem Loging in ISP

2000-10-11 Thread Goldenpi

For the login problem-Use chap, not pap

For the unable to access web problem-Are your DNS servers entered.

For the modem-Might be a winmodem, but I dont know any winmodems that fail
like that. Cant help you there. Unless you want to change the port it uses,
but its a long shot.

You do not need a modem.  Since I have yet to configure my own, I'll let 
others tell you about which delay it is that you need to increase.  -Gary-

 Saying that it is really slow to communicate with my system, it may take
 half a minute or more for the info to go to my modem
 I therefore configured kppp and everything and my computer dials out
 when it goes to sending the login and password:
 1. either not sends it at all (if it is in pap connection mode I think)
 2. or it sends the login and then by the time it sends the password the
 terminal shows incorect pass try again and hence my password is being send
 as a login
 
 What can I do??? (apart from bying a new modem!)
 
 Also: i have connected once using netconfig  from drakeconfig and everything
 worked but then the modem is even slower to communicate with the system
 kppp thinks it is connected (and it is propably) but in reality I am
 not as I cannot access the web

[newbie] Problem Loging in ISP

2000-10-10 Thread Greek Fellas

Hello there,

I am a newbie as well and I have a problem:

I want to connect to the internet
I have an ISP (tel number, login and password)
I have kppp and some other programs (gnome-ppp) as well as netconfig from
drakeconfig
I have a modem which although it is a internal and not being recognised by
my system it works!!
(it even works under real DOS !!!)
Saying that it is really slow to communicate with my system, it may take
half a minute or more for the info to go to my modem
I therefore configured kppp and everything and my computer dials out
when it goes to sending the login and password:
1. either not sends it at all (if it is in pap connection mode I think)
2. or it sends the login and then by the time it sends the password the
terminal shows incorect pass try again and hence my password is being send
as a login

What can I do??? (apart from bying a new modem!)

Also: i have connected once using netconfig  from drakeconfig and everything
worked but then the modem is even slower to communicate with the system
kppp thinks it is connected (and it is propably) but in reality I am
not as I cannot access the web


Many thanx

Costas
