In china, we are still using dail-up. but I don't know how we can add it to Haiku. here is the software we commonly use. and this app is just used in China, I don't know how we can port it to haiku. http://messenger.vnet.cn/ this app is released by China Telecom. but for me , we will crack its password, and connect to the internet by Router。 but I don't think it is a good idea for common users who are not familiar with cracking and advanced computer skills. --kurain <http://messenger.vnet.cn/> -- 淡泊明志,宁静致远。
