Hi,I am installing freeserve,wanadoo,orange (what ever their called
now) on a fresh installation of windows xp.

The person i am installing it for has lost the installation cd.I have
managed to download the drivers for the speedtouch 330 modem and can
possibly set up the connection manually.I have the username and
password but i don't know what number to dial.I have often seen the
number to be '0'.Can anyone confirm the number to dial and also if
theres anywhere i can download the installation cd from?

Thanks

I never use ISPs CDs (except for the USB modem driver bit)
They set all sorts of branding, IE favourites and defaults etc.

The DUN phone number probebly can be anything.
Some modems appear to pass the VPI VCI in the phone number field so
0,38 is seen sometimes.
Its a long time since i set up a USB modem. but Sagem modem I
had from Tiscali had adsl in the phone number field.

Cheers for the replies.

I found this...
You can get a replacement CD from:

http://www.speedtouchonline.com/CD41.asp

The number appears to be 0

To avoid using the ISP's CD I found and downloaded the drivers for a
Speedtouch USB modem. Only trouble was, the setup wanted several decisions
re. protocols and so on - was it just coincidence that I wasn't on line at
the time? ;-)

I read it and do not see where the op asked for a dialup number
I have a orange dailup and do not use that number, maybe there is more
than oneI use 08440587000

The Speedtouch 300 is an ADSL USB modem.
ADSL modems do not dial phone numbers
ADSL modems often do use Windows dial-up Networking (DUN)
to initiate a connection and pass the username and password.

What the OP really wanted to know, was what to put in the
phone number field, not the number of Orange dial-up.
Maybe that would have been obvious to you too, if you knew
what a Speedtouch 300 was.
