Just wanted to express my thanks to you for posting the information on how
to properly configure Dial-Up PPP. That has proven to be a life saver and
opened the gates to the Internet. I can now get on with my project.

Thank goodness for the kindness of strangers. Hope someday I can return the
favor. Thanks again!!!

Regards

Eddie Currie
