I have already setup an AS5300 with 120 modems. I managed to dial in the access server & get authenticate without activate the "bring up terminal after dialing". Why i can conform that is bcoz i can get the ip address from the ip pool from as5300, also the dns server ip address. If I activate the "bring up terminal after dialing" on dial-up networking, the terminal will show up and let me key-in username & password. once I finished the key-in, then I press "F7" to continue, it straightaway tell me that it can't establish the connection. hopefully you guy can help me out. regards, lee ___________________________________ UPDATED Posting Guidelines: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/guide.html FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
