Dial Up Blues

[Nokoff]

I disconnect often from the network and I have serious trouble dialing back up again. I usually get a PPP error or the "the network is not responding" error in XP. What's the diagnosis? Is there any way to get around this? Sometimes I'm stuck for hours on end without access.

Get a Talkom techie to test? otherwise if you know of someone who will lend you a router for a day or two then that would be a good test point.
I see you are initiating a PPP connection, so you are either using a usb modem or have a router in bridge mode, so i would try rebooting the machine as that is what is running the PPPoE.

Thanks for the info... Telkom sucketh! I just got off an 18 minute wait on the phone and eventually hung up. The router idea I like though, I just have no one to lend one from DG834GT in bridge mode, but I tried it in router mode too, same connection probs.
