Hi all, Given the current climate regarding correct netiquette and posting guidelines to WAMUG, I have decided to refloat a question I posted on Saturday (to which I received zero responses) in case my failure to state that I had first searched the usual web haunts without success (e.g. google, WAMUG archives, knowledge base) may have contributed to the lack of response. Still finding no reports of this problem elsewhere, I wonder whether there is someone on the list running 10.1.2 and a ppp connection via modem would mind confirming whether their menu status icon exhibits similar behaviour to that outlined below - making sure, of course, that the "Disconnect when user logs out" option is unchecked in the ppp options of the Network preference. Else, if someone can point me to a url that I may have missed in my search, or suggest a possible solution that would also be appreciated. I reformatted my drive and fresh installed 10.1.2 so I'm a little perplexed as to what may be the cause of this behaviour.
Thanks again, Matt.
