(3) When I try ping on a name I know, eg www.ecn.net.au, the server resolves it to 203.22.70.2 but then says its unreachable ..... same for www.microsoft.com and everything else I can think of (4) Typing "lynx" brings "making http connection to 203.3.126.3 (the http proxy) but then stops .... says unable to connect to remote host, & can't access startfile http://lynx.browser.org (5) Apart from "Control Alt Delete", is there a way to disconnect ppp ??
