Peter,

Yes I've had a very similar problem. Smartsurf runs fine in auto mode
using the W95 DUN connection but causes dial out problems using the TP
connection. I only discovered this after much mucking about and help
from David English of Turnpike. 

I'm afraid I have no solution to the problem and can't be bothered
fiddling about any more. At the moment I prefer to use Turnpike to
connect so my solution is to make the connection first then launch
SmartSurf from TP's Connect toolbar to time the call (adding in a
suitable number of seconds to the start of the call). It does the job
and I'm happy to leave it at that. 

Hope this helps in some small way. Incidentally, what modem do you use?
I've got a Motorola 3400 28.8 and wondered if we share something in
common with our setups/modems? I don't think many experience this
problem and am curious to know why :-)

If ever you sort it out, let me/us know, eh? Ta.

Chris
