I am using a G3 USB modem as my internet connection - Firefox 12 seems to think I'm connecting through a network when I'm using a dial-up connection.

IF I open IE8 first - which automatically dials the connection and then open Firefox 12 connect quite happily BUT if I just open Firefox 12 I get no connectivity,

I want to use Firefox 12 cos I dislike IE8 - how do I tell Firefox 12 that it is meant to auto-dial a dial-up connection?

Hi Tobbi,

Thank you.

I've followed the instructions, Rebooted, opened Firefox 12 and got the 'No connection' error again.

Checked in services - those 3 are running - so I guess the answer is NO. no help but thanks

Also, it says no auto-disconnect option - download 'hang up' but that link seems to be dead - Firefox can't find the server at www1.physik.tu-muenchen.de.

Any ideas please?

Thanks again

Nope - neither article helped - what it did bring sharply into focus is that has been as issue for OVER 10 YEARS.

Not a great ad for using open source when the evil Satan Microsoft has managed it for 20 years.
