That's OK. What you got was my boilerplate list.

FWIW, you might want to change your earthlink password since you just
distributed it to the entire mailing list with gets archived to the scoug
website. :-)

The problem is your DNS setup in the dialer.

You have 209.69.188.185. Nslookup says:

[D:\TMP]nslookup 209.69.188.185
Server: rns2.earthlink.net
Address: 207.217.77.82

*** rns2.earthlink.net can't find 209.69.188.185: Non-existent host/domain

This is why the browser can not find the internet. A while ago I
suggested you try 207.217.77.82 or 207.217.120.83. I know these work.
Nslookup says:

[D:\TMP]nslookup 207.217.77.82
Server: rns2.earthlink.net
Address: 207.217.77.82

Name: rns2.earthlink.net
Address: 207.217.77.82

This is set up on the Connect Info page.

You have the MRU Size to 256. This is terribly inefficient. I recommend
1500.

You have the login sequence set to NONE. This works, but I recommend you
blank out the entrie field completely. This will use a slightly more
secure method. I tested both methods with your userid and both work using
my access numbers.

Regards,

Steven
