Folks,

I've got a bit of a problem and can't figure out the answer.

I use a dial-up connection for Internet access. The ISP is use cuts off the connection after 2 hours, at which point I redial. But when I try to do this a 2nd or 3rd time, I get an error, 628, when verifying username and password, saying the connection could not be established. From that point, DUN will not connect to any ISP. However, if I restart the PC, I can connect again without any problem.

This is on an XP system.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Any help and/or info would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

SG

when you dial up first time its ok,have you checked to save password and username,it sounds like you cant connect because of this.each time you redial your u/name and pass have not saved

No, it's not that. The username and password are being saved so I don't have to enter them when I dialup.
