Which ISP?

Just a thought that when I tried to connect (56K Dial-up) using the Kppp to set up the connection, it dials and I can hear the answering modem coming back..... it got to the point where I received "Logging on to network" then sat there and timed out. Would it maybe looking for the Password at that point in time and not seeing it.......the password was entered during the set up procedure......
I maybe a mile off but just a thought

My dialup behaves that way too since late last year (on Ubuntu but not XP), after some Telecom modem realignment apparently - as in, on 0867 dialin _their_ modems capture your call and patch it into the trunk now, rather than your ISPs. The Mac-related script fixes it, they say; or, as I have done, revert to the 03******* dialin. Can you?
