Dial up connection with a calling card

C

Chris

I have configured a dialup connection using a prepaid
calling card so I can check mail while I'm on vacation.
When the dialup connection dial it dials the 800 access
number it dials the calling card number then the error
676 pops up with the message the phone line is busy.


I haven't even dialed the isp access numner yet. The
software seem to just timeout and quit.

In Windows98 dialup configuration a checkbox was there
for long dial strings or for connections that took a long
time to provide dial tone.

Help I don't want to leave my laptop at home.

The problem was the calling card! After calling AT&T and
adding a 2 second delay after the ISP's phone number and
adding a # everything worked fine.
