Dial up Networking not working

[roofnron]

I have another problem I was hoping would go away but it is not. When I try to use Dial Up Networking to connect to an ISP it is not connecting.

I can hear the dial tone, the computers talking, and then the silence. It then sits there and doesn't connect. Then tries to redial.

I have checked the timeout(60sec.), checked network tcp/ip, checked number, name and password. I even deleted everything and reinstalled the dial up adapter and network settings. I even tried reinstalling Windows. I have tried different ISP's and all do the same. I am lost. I would be thankful for any ideas.

The same day I believe this began I did use partition magic and installed pcanywhere. I don't know if this could have anything to do with it. I have uninstalled PCanywhere till I resolve this problem.

Thanks smitee, ended up being modem problem. I put another one in and now it works fine.

I went to modem properties and windows said "device is working properly" and when I went to more info it returned the At commands OK. I could even use phone dialer to call someone.

Anyway the new one is working fine. Thanks again anyway.
