Default Telephone Line Fault?

Some modems have problems connecting when they "see" or "hear" the
interrupted dialtone. Clear your messages and you should be able to connect
OK.


Unticking the "wait for dialtone" box in the modem configuration
dialogue will also solve that. If you can't see that, then entering an
advanced configuration option of "ATX0" should also do it.
