Check domain "NAMESERVER =" in STiK's DEFAULT.CNF, should be 158.152.1.43,
but try to use proxy first (if it is up :-| ). 0bytes means CAB hasn't got
anything (it should be showing "Recieving data:"). I'd think your STiK can't
resolve host (can not connect to nameserver). I never wait more then 30sec.
anyway. Any longer means there's a prob.BTW, watching modem's LEDs helps to
see weather STiK sends requests and gets any answers. Hope that helps,or maybe
Guy is around, he is a guru ya know:-) .
