The new Fiesty CD just came in the mail yesterday. That was sure a lot faster than expected. Great work. I live miles form any high speed internet connection. I can get Fiesty to fire up the modem in at least two ways: the pon/poff command line method or by deselecting the wired connection and setting the dialup modem as default in system- administration-network (in which case I hear the modem dial as Fiesty boots up).
But even though I hear the modem dial out and even though plog shows connection has been made, Firefox does not seem to be able to find anything on the internet. (I usually ask it go to the Google homepage). This may be a bit off the topic of this discussion, for which I apologize, but I suspect it is something common to other users as well. I hope I can get help from someone here. Either suggestions as to what needs to be reset to get the dialup modem to be recognised as the correct way to the outside world or a suggestions as to where I might find such information. I'd be perfectly happy to use any of the above mentioned connection methods or gppp, kppp or other, but first I have to get connected or I can't even get such programs or any updates.
