Ordered it again about 2 1/2 weeks ago. Got it about a week and a half ago. I have no idea which order it came from, as I've only got one package so far. I'd suggest trying to call again and/or ordering it through their www site (www.worldnet.att.net or www.att.com). Works fine in windows. You can use your own internet software to connect if it supports CHAP authentication. Works fine from the OS/2 PPP software. The service is fast, no busy signals, and I've already dumped my other two ISP's that I used before, so I could have reliable service. As always, your mileage may vary. ------------- Behram Parekh bparekh@worldnet.att.net
