Well, your information did help, thank you. But strange for me is, that client
had configured IPX, NetBios _and_ TCP/IP as protocols used with dial-up
networking. That was why it received IP number, connection was for several
seconds up, and then it went down. Maybe reason was poor phone line (modems
have never spoken faster than 16800), and connection went down during
negotiating the other two protocols because there was no more bandtwidth for
TCP/IP transmission?
