| 97259 | 2002-11-08 12:03:00 | Ok, sorry about the misleading heading... but here's the (minor) issue... My little brother is coming around tomorrow evening to get me to set up an Internet connection on his flashy new laptop - he's running XP pro. My issue is... I used to be a helpdesk oper for an ISP but... that was a couple years ago, and I've never confronted XP - are there any pitfalls in XP when setting up DUN that I should be aware of? Natch I'll be able to sort it, but any pre-config probs from others would be welcomed! Ta |

| 97262 | 2002-11-08 19:36:00 | XP is a breeze for setting up DUN - the wizard is quite clear and understandable, it should all go through quite straightforward. Let us know how you get on, and post back if you have problems :) Good luck. Mike. |
