Thanks for the help. I'm using a later version of PCA which does use 5631
and 5632 so that's not the problem, because the weird thing is, I can
connect when doing cable modem to cable modem, just not dial-up modem to
cable modem. I don't understand it. Anyway, I'll keep looking into it.
Thanks for the suggestion...
