Re: how to setup new dsl access ACCOUNT w/o using the install cd
That's an ActiveX concrol from Motive.
It for the stupid Guided installation w/ audio.
I did install that control, but I cannot find and AT&T software installed outside that control.
It's handles the modem detection, but it gave me a selection of 3 or 4 different modems or other. I chose other.
After the registration confirmation page (shows user/pass, security questions, etc..) I stopped. I didn't install any of the tools.
I forgot I had ActiveX allows in IE (I only use it for company apps than require).
It installs 3 dlls, but I have disabled them in IE. I normally use Firefox anyway. I'm sure I could delete them and the registry entries for them without iusse.

must install activeX software | 
after clicking cancel |
First is the prompt to install the Motive software.
Second is after clicking cancel on the first page.
So, where can I specify my own modem? After motive doesn't detect it? It's too late then. |

I don't remember installing any software from the CD.
I connected to the route/modem, used the attreg user/pss to connect the modem.
I ran the setup tool, said it was my own modem.
It took me ti the registration page (I guess that the dslinstallation site, I couldn't find the address before).
I filled in the reginfo, got to the summary page, and exited.
Went back to the modem, changed the user/pass and reconnected.
It's worked fine since (Feb 25).
