Re: [debian-knoppix] re: Modem problem
Hi Shawn,
Thanks for your continue advice.
Obtained DNS IP as per your advice.
Kstart -> Knoppix -> Network/Internet -> Modem Dialer
-> Start KPPP
Setup -> Account -> Highlighted A/C name -> Edit -> DNS -> Select
"Manual" -> Add DNS IP Address -> Ok - Ok -> Connect
ISP connected, time counter running
Still could not connect to Internet
Rechecked KPPP, found DNS IP Address erased.
Setup KPPP again. Situation remained unchanged, DNS IP Address erased
automatically after clicking Ok - Ok
Also tried select/de-select "Disable existing DNS servers during
connection". No improvement found
Remark : my ISP requires no "extra" stuff
B.Regards
Stephen
