I can connect fine... the problem is that I can't seem to control the dial-on-demand feature. If I can get a dial-up session, I can authenticate. Last night I turned on the router and the modem, nothing else... the modem dialed up and connected. Why is the router requesting a dialup when there was no network activity of any kind? If I had the computer(s) on and connected to the router, then I turned on the modem, I can't get the router to request a dial-up no matter what I do. I can launch Netscape, email, whatever and there is no request for a dial-up from the router. I have to log into the router and manually select the connect button on the modem setup page. > >I'll try to help more if I can. What do you have your DNS configured for in your TCP/IP control panel? I set mine ot the router's address as suggested in one if the manuals. Thanks for your help. -Steve -- Steve Heitke [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MacNetwork is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
