I have been unable to get my AOL DSL connection up and running.
-Windows XP
-AOL 7.0
-Efficient Networks SpeedStream 4080 USB modem with XP drivers.
AOL, Efficient Networks, and Verizon are all basically blaming each other for
the problem, and I've tried everything they've suggested to no avail.
Is it true that Verizon (New England)'s servers are not yet capable of
dealing with Windows XP PPOE software?
Might an ethernet card and ethernet modem solve my problem, since its my
understanding that it wouldn't need drivers or PPOE?
Possible clue: I was able to connect (briefly, and then lost it) after
setting the AOL software Properties>Compatability to Windows 98
compatability. This resulted in "DUN/RAS" files being installed, but I'm not
sure what this means.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Please email them to me if possible.
Thanks!
