John; Your startnet and dial scripts look o.k. So does your ppp0.config. < I still get dumped into the shell with the following msg: < add host 199.174.129.17: gateway 127.0.0.1 add net default: gateway < 149.174.210.3 At this point in your setup, does your modem seem to be connected? If so, you are online. This shell message comes from your CIS ppp server, giving you your dynamic addresses. I get the same message. Try doing the following: Type "ping ftp.wustl.edu" and see what happens. If you are connected, you will see that your system is sending packets to ftp.wustl.edu. If both your modem's send light and the read light seem to be flashing, wait about 30 seconds and then hit ctrl-c. You should then get a message summing up the result of your "pinging" i.e. the speed of the signal, and how many packets were received. Let me know what happens. Hank
