having trouble dialing up in bridge mode

[brandlc]

Hey people. .
i am new to this wwhole forum thing so im sorry if this has been mentioned b4. .
im having trouble with my router. . i always get my mom capped so she decided to get me my own dsl account and get a tech to put the router on bridge mode so i can use my account and she can use hers. It worked for a while and then all of a sudden i couldn't dial up a connection (PPPoE) it keeps giving errors 619 mainly and i do not know how to fix this . If any1 could help me with fixing this it wud b great =):wtf:

Welcome to myBB !

619 is usually bad username and or password

Try to retype it... case sensitive and correct structure required.

if not - can you ping your router ? (start->cmd->ping 192.168.1.254 or 10.0.0.2)

hey thanks. . yeh i can ping it perfectly. . and ive tryed to retype password and username and made sure no caps or anything xD. . uhm well if i go to internet options and i edit the dial up connection there my password is always longer than its supose to be then i retype that and i exit and try connect again and i get a error AGAIN and i go back to internet options and the password is longer again!!!! if that makes sense lol

what i would try next is to try and delete your PPPOE shortcut , and recreate it..

using XP/VISTA? just make a new PPPOE connection - can also try the telkom guest account - guest@telkomadsl with guest as password (might be guest1)

on the point of the password ******** showing longer - thats correct - its called masking. older operating systems had the exact 1:1 character:*

ok well i have deleted and created a new PPPoE connection about 3 time bud. . and im using xp sp2. . .ok so the password being longer isnt anything to worry about>???

nope - its called masking..

any internet security suites running?

you sure other people can do bridging with it working on that adsl modem - just not your pc?
