hi I have no idea what modem you are running, but I had similar issues to start with. I found http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/index.php?lang=en to be a fantastic bit of kit. simple to setup (username, pass etc), type of modem, provider addresses everything. highly recommended. hth # tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
