Windows 95 support. Requires the Microsoft Dial-Up Networking Upgrade 1.2 or later to operate on the retail version. The OEM Service Releases of Windows 95 should require no updates.

Follow this *exactly*:

thanks glc, the lady actually decided that it was not a new internet connection she wanted, but rather a new computer. she had fooled herself into thinking that dsl would fix all of her problems. however, she will be getting the dsl once she gets a new computer, and i will you raspppoe instead of the yahoo crap. thanks a lot for your help with this.

Do you have the notes on how to set up SBC without using the software?

Mail servers - pop/smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com
smtp requires authentication

If her new box has XP, you won't even need RASPPPoE - the builtin PPPoE client works fine and so does the XP firewall.

thanks alot. i appreciate it very much. do you still have to register the name before connecting on the computer, or is there a default user/p-word to use until registration is complete. thanks
