It was ok one day then bung the next. I cannot think of anything that has changed. I share the same phone line so I set up my ISP on her machine and it still does the same. Damned if I know what has happened. Anyone able to help? Thanks	Guest (0)

Check under start>settings>controlpanel>modems>click properties and check the thing 'cancel call if not connected within [] seconds, and set it to something like 60 or turn the option off. The likelyness is that it takes longer than that time to get though conection procedure and simply cancels call. hope this helped	Guest (0)
