01813434848 was the *only* number you could use to connect to Demon
about 2-3 years ago before the Ascends. I'm afraid I have never 
changed as I have never (touch computer) had any *real* problems
connecting. It does very occasionally not respond if you pick up a
dodgy modem, guess you were unlucky. I did try the Reading POP when
it first came out but it was always engaged so I gave up and preferred
to pay a bit more for a frustration free life :-)

BTW thanks very much indeed for the info on how to get HSMODEM, and
while I am here thanks to Guy and 'Flinny' for your help, It really
does reassure me that the Atari is still alive and kicking with the
likes of you guys around. I will now go away and install HSMODEM
and give things another try. I'll let you know how I get on.

Cheers !

Will.
