Hi all

On a mac
Having difficulty connecting to

Get "No Carrier Signal" or "Remote side is not responding properly"

Any ideas?

It's not you, it's Demon or BT.  You'll find that if you try
to call at peak times you won't get a connection.  You might
get one if you try again immediately.  Sometimes I have to
try three or four times.  If I stay away from the hour from
6pm to 7pm I rarely get any such problems.

This appears to have started about a month ago.  I have to
assume that there's some sort of overcrowding going on at
peak times.

Simon.

I have been getting this problem with my iMac for the last couple of months.
So much so, that I use a Win2K machine to dial up(no problems whatsover),
and network the two together.  Messy, but it works.

My iMac had no probs connecting for the first year or so.  I can't work it
out.  Strange thing is, when I tell Remote Access to use a terminal window,
I get a **HUGE** scrolling list of nonsense, instead of Login: Password:
etc.  I **don't** get this when I dial up to my company network using the
same procedure (ie. just change the phone number)
