Re: modem

I am having kinda the same problem..  I finally got it to connect and not
hang up on me, but then it says it cant do anything, (standard netscape talk,
"Invalid DNS entry" stuff..)
Sound about right Jeff?
Try something though,  try to connect via the ip addresses...  My friend had
this same problem, and he could access them via the ip, but not the name..  I
havent gotten around to try this, so lemme know if it works or not.
