Hi,
No,as soon as the modem gets connected,i get all the just
characters on the screen,and i click continue....so there is no prompt at
all....The DNS entries in /etc/resolv.conf are entered correctly.The phone
lines are not bad because i can use the same modem and line to dial to our
company server,but the trouble is we don't have enough lines,so it's always
busy(here i have a user name and password).
Well answer to the last question......i also still
pay for internet,i dont think any ISP provider can afford to give internet
connection for free.This is only a service provided by the local telcom
here ....Q-tel in Qatar .....

Are you supposed to type 'ppp' at some prompt?
Also do you have the correct DNS entries in /etc/reolv.conf ?
Else it may be a bad phone line.
(Where are you from and what is the number? I still pay for internet.)
