AS one who suggested you use a different dial up procedure in order to gather additional clues. I humbly suggest that the " main issue " is not what the message said.......... the main issue is that your computer does not connect. These messages are generated dependent on the end result,,, and the problem can be a long way from there, either your end or the other end. Sure , it said that the other side is not responding, but did you send what the other side needed in order to respond. ????? It can be very difficult to put a finger on the actual cause at times, without gathering a lot of other clues as to where to look. ( As a sample of this view Bill Parker's message in WAMUG archives message sent 15/5/2003 @ 7.40am and the heading was " Re: More iinet. Was tedious now boring and tedious." ) So did you try a manual connection by opening Apple Remote Access and connecting from there , and at what stage did your connection attempt fail ?
