I recently installed VNC and now I can not dialup to the internet. It tells me that my modem is not configured. Everything is fine with my modem. When I go into modem and phone options it comes up with the location information page but there is nothing in the country/region box. I can't continue without first putting in a country. Everything was fine before VNC please help.

OK, Uninstall VNC (what ever that is) and see
if you modem functions again.. Then leave
well enough alone.

Other guy is right. If it was working before you loaded software and now it's not it is a software issue. I have had to fix that problem several times.

well first of all I assume VNC stands for "virtual Network communications" or something like that. The word virtual means that you have put another layer of software between you and the internet. That means that you must configure VNC to allow youthrough to the net. You may have chosen a software that does not fit your application. Ask yourself, do I have the right setup to use VNC ? Are you part of a LAN ? Perhaps you need a certain type of modem to run VNC. I think that before, you were one computer connected to the net, but now you are connected to the net and to a virtual network, so you may have to plug in to the other phone jack on the modem. You can try google.com/VPN; Sometimes you have to set an option every time you wantto connect to the web. I think you might have gotten unneeded software......
