Very interesting. I wasn't aware of that bit! So it's definitely not hardware then. Two of Larry's URLs I think you should definitely pay close attention to (the others shouldn't apply to you... you should be running OS X 10.3.5, 10.2.8 or 10.2.6 (anything else and you're asking for trouble)... and you DEFINITELY NEVER, EVER, ABSOLUTELY, UNEQUIVOCALLY NEVER should be running a Norton product on Mac OS X (especially anti-virus software)): http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25375 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106447 I'd be interested to know what happens in your log file. It's been a while since the start of this thread so perhaps you can describe: (1) what it is that happens when you dial, and (2) what you've got your modem settings set to? You use Sympatico as your ISP? (...since I haven't move MUGLO over to my GMail account I don't bother to keep threads around so I can't easily look at the start of this thread) PS Hotmail just upped their free size to 250 MB, Yahoo has been at 100 MB for eons and GMail is at 1 GB PS2 I've got two GMail invitations to give away. Let me know if you're interested and I should be able to seed the list with these two invitations (on the condition that you offer two of your first batch of invitations to other list members who'd like an address... this way everyone gets a shot at an account in about a month or so (GMail occasionally gives out batches of 6 invitations for current account holders to send out).
