Sorry for not reading the FAQ. I guess you must be sick of people like me!
I had another go connecting and I can now ping both dns servers using the IP numbers in the resolv.conf file. I still can't browse. Here is info : RedHat7.2 with Kernel 2.4.7-10 PPPD version 2.4.1 My VPI/VCI is 0 38 for UK The modem driver version is 1.0 My ISP is BTOpenworld Here are my USB controllers : Bus 0, device 7, function 2: USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UHCI USB (rev 22). IRQ 5. Master Capable. Latency=32. I/O at 0xc400 [0xc41f]. Bus 0, device 7, function 3: USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UHCI USB (#2) (rev 22). IRQ 5. Master Capable.

Here are the contents of my messages log : Apr 25 19:16:29 localhost kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout Apr 25 19:16:29 localhost kernel: usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 2 ep 0x85 len 512 ret -110 Apr 25 19:16:32 localhost kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout Apr 25 19:16:40 localhost kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost kernel: CSLIP: code copyright 1989 Regents of the University of California Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost kernel: PPP generic driver version 2.4.1 Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost pppd[1969]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0 Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost pppoa3[1970]: PPPoA3 version 1_0 started by root (uid 0) Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost pppoa3[1970]: Control thread ready Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost pppd[1969]: Using interface ppp0 Apr 25 19:17:01 localhost pppd[1969]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2 Apr 25 19:17:02 localhost kernel: HDLC line discipline: version 3.2, maxframe=4096 Apr 25 19:17:02 localhost kernel: N_HDLC line discipline registered.

If I remember correctly the browser says "Host not found" I tried using netscape and KDE conq. Any guidance you can give would be useful at this point as I'm well and truly stumped. Thanks in advance.
