Can anyone understand why I have been able using Netscape 4 to setup a
Freeserve account (creating a new connectlet with
freeservesignup/signup logon username & password) choosing a node and
real password yet am unable to connect using these words afterwards.
I've done this twice (I have 2 accounts but can't use them!)
The terminal window reports incorrect password from the Freeserve
server if I use just the node and my passsword and Windows95 reports
"this computer is unable to set up a DUN----) if I use
username.freeserve.co.uk and my password.
Could it be a modem problem- it's a V90 flashed Courier.
I have no problems with Demon connections for my other account.
