Help!!! I've been beating my head against my Amiga all evening trying to set up all the goodies I need to get into the Internet. I've run the iinst151 program and everything seems happy…until I try doing something! More specifically, when I get into the shell and type 'INTERNET', my A4000 grunts a little bit, the IO LED flickers a moment on my Prometheus ProModem 144e and … nothing happens. No dialing, no noise, no nothing! After a short while, I get the message PPP FAILED… I spend all day at work futzing about with messDOS machines and NOVELL. I look forward to using my Amiga at home (in the 20 or so minutes my 2-year old daughter allows me each night!). Can someone out there in netland help me get my computer to talk to my modem so I can waste even more money and time on the net? Robert Fisher
