Mentor ADSL PCI Card and BT Broadband

[Steve]

Have Mentor ADSL PCI Card and BT Broadband. Installed the card but it
doesn't connect to the network. Installed the card with the WAN driver.
OS is Win XP Pro.

Have searched about but can't find a website for Mentor. They don't have
contact details on the packaging nor in the pdf manual.

Card installation is fine but toolbox just reports trying to activate line
but is not connecting.

Any ideas on how to use card to connect to BT Broadband or the whereabouts
of Mentors homepage would be greatly appreciated

Was the card supplied by BT? if so there may be further help on the BT
pages.
If the broadband is a new service BT have activated it?

No. They supplied Speedtouch 330 ADSL modem. They won't help as Mentor ADSL
PCI card was not purchased through them. Am trying to setup PCI card on
another computer which i am keeping off my current network and using as a
standalone computer.

If I understand correctly; You have a pc with Speedtouch connected to BT
Broadband, you now wish to add the Mentor to a second pc and connect also to
the 'same' BT Broadband service?
Wouldnt life have been simpler with a router? The second pc doesnt have to
be networked, ie connected to second pc, for this.
