Greetings to those who know!

 

I have two other user accounts on my pc, guest and my daughter. I can only connect to the internet on my account, on the others I get this message: I have checked all the settings, they are identical to my account.

Error 734: The PPP Link Control Protocol Was Terminated" Error Message Occurs If You Try to Establish a Dial-Up Connection .

I have adsl.

 

What have I missed? Or what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Riley

It is to be observed that 'angling' is the name given to fishing by people who can't fish.

If GOD had NOT meant us to go fishing, WHY did he give us arms then??

(If you can't help out someone in need then don't bother my old Dad always said! My grandma put it a LITTLE more, well different! It's like peeing yourself in a black pair of pants she said! It gives you a LOVELY warm feeling but no-one really notices!))

Do you have a router or a usb adsl modem?

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.

Personally I think that USB ADSL modems suck, big style. I would try removing it completely (add remove software), reboot, re-install and then reboot again. If it were my broadband connection I would toss the USB modem and buy a router.

I had an idea you might say that! (doesnt router mean wireless connections, or haveI got my wires crossed as usual)

Ok uninstall reinstall doesnt seem beyond my capabilities... i have better things to do but I guess they can wait!

 

thanks for info.

A PROPER hub will at todays prices cost you around £30. Suggest trying ELTONS link and shop at DABS.com VERY good and VERY cheap!!

Routers come in both wired and wireless varieties.
