Where is the option to set up a dial-up connection in firefox 12?
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.
