I also changed the modem speed to 38400 just to be safe. I get: Modem Ready... Dialing ... Connecting To ... Logging on to Network ... Up pops the Error Box stating "The pppd Daemon Died Unexpectedly!" The PPP Log is: pppd 2.3.10 Started by root, uid0 Using Interface ppp0 Connect ppp0 <--> /dev/cua1 Chap Authentication Failed Connection Terminated. Exit. kppp's Diagnosis is "Check that you supplied the correct username and password." I did and they are both correct. Did I enter the "noauth" in the wrong place? Again, thanks! Lori Rothermel
