Hi, Firstly I presume that you are using wvdial as the dialer which I conclude is contacting your ISP OK. I suppect that you have not got the ppp area setup correctly. I'm not sure how Kinternet operates, but I suggest you have a look at the following:- /etc/ppp/options /etc/ppp/pap_secrets (if your ISP is using PAP for authorisation) or /etc/ppp/chap_secrets ( If your ISP is using CHAP) /etc/resolv.conf Regards, Graham Smith ----------------------------------
