Re: CONNECT WITH NO AOL SOFTWARE IN THE UK

it works if you take out the phone number as well and just use your screenname and password as i think the modem allrady gets a link to AOL before you start the software and it justs needs you to log in,

Re: CONNECT WITH NO AOL SOFTWARE IN THE UK

And this is a PPPoA connection since your connecting directly from the software based on the modem (BT Voyager (USB)) and due to your location.

I see this works for you.

So in short: Delete the number on the modem's properties then connect just using the modem with one of your screen name accounts (screenname@aol.com) and password.

I hope this works for everyone.

All UK and England users, please come and confirm for everyone!
