Any help as soon as possible would be appreciated. > > Robert Hammond Once you have logged into your provider and have PPP running on his end, type a ~p to start packet mode on your end. If it abruptly hangs up on you, maybe you need to figure out PAP or CHAP. If it's something simple like PAP, before you do 'term' type the following: ppp> set authname whoeverIam ppp> set authkey my_pap_password ppp> term ...and then do all the other stuff. CHAP is almost assuredly different, unfortunately I don't use it so I can't help you without going home and doing the ol' RTFM myself. Good luck and Godspeed, Brian
