452699 2006-05-06 21:05:00 Have you tried removing TCP/IP from the network and reinstalling

yes ......and tried a full 'repair' install of winME

Error 691 is wrong username or password. This is a new connection or existing? If new check the ISP has the exact same details, sometimes they spell it wrong or whatever.
If existing, are you SURE the passwords correct, no capitals or numbers instead of letters or something?

both existing connections ...(mine and the owners) NO the passwords/user names aer not incorrect. Check the last pic I posted to see the problem with the tcp/ip properties sheet

mm control panel / network?

Then Add / select adapter?? See if dialup adapter is here.

been there done that


Install Win98. ;)

452702 2006-05-07 02:44:00 It's the old problem: The obvious answer is always too simple to be considered. :thumbs:

The more expert the expert(s) involved, the longer it takes. Every expert should have a surgically attached learner who is not ashamed to ask the "stupid" questions, like: "Why are you entering that when the instructions say ... ?" :cool:
