Ok, One more time.

I believe I can fix my Video card problem if I can only get my connected
online to get the new files.  I looked at the tutorial and I thought I got
it alright.  It said to use 10.0.0.1/0 and 10.0.0.0/2 if you were unsure or
unaware of your IP settings.  I went to my provider (Earthlink) and all I
could get were:
IP (server assigned) 0.0.0.0
DNS (Primary) 207.217.126.81
DNS (Secondary) 207.217.77.82 or 207.217.120.83

which I am not sure fit into my setup here.

[PPP.CONF]

default:
  set device /dev/cuaa1
  set speed 38400
  set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
ISP:
  set phone "number"
  set login "TIMEOUT 10 \"\" \"\" gin:--gin: username word: pass col: ppp"
  set timeout 120
  set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
  add default HISADDR
  authname username
  authkey pass

[PPP.LINKUP]

ISP:
  delete ALL
  add default HISADDR
 

>From then on after I type ppp I get:
# ppp
User process PPP. Written by Toshiharu OHNO.
Using interface: tun0
ppp ON myname>dial ISP
Dial attempt 1 of 1
Phone: number
Dial OK!
ModemDial:  Login Failed
 
and then I have to quit the ppp.   I am still getting the same output as
before.  My modem is found and then dials the number correctly, but, just
doesnt connect.  I thought that was the hardest part, but I am probably
making this harder.
 
Thanks for any info you have...
