Do you get an error message when trying to dial up?

no, I connect via a BT Voyager 200 Router, All the lights are on, the power,
LAN and Line...

I've checked all the connections, and they seem to be ok...

But if the 'puter was trying to connect via a disconnected (modem) dial up
connection rather than connecting through a connected ADSL modem / router...
The OP was the first to use the phrase 'dial up', I suppose I was
questioning that.

yes, but surely it was clear he "dialup" mentioned by the OP was
the 'last resort' (ie 56k) connection, where PCI/USB ADSL modems
often have drivers and are activated in ways similar to dial up,
despite needing no phone number, etc, etc. Peter M.

I think you have misunderstood. Mutley only said he was using dialup because he
could not connect to his adsl.

So what happens when you try and connect? Does it fail to authenticate? Or are
the no webpages loading?
