Interesting... when I start Netscape the router won't tell the modem to dial. I'll have to go back and redo the TCP/IP settings to only be active when needed to see if that helps. I changed configurations once or twice and I haven't retested all options. I'll have to take better notes on each step of the process. I have the router's IP as my DNS in the TCP/IP control panel, would that mess anything up? I was having internet connection problems, while dialed in, until I changed the DNS setting.
