:( after trying to connect about 6 times but freeserve was engaged the connection failed and then when i re tried it can not find a connection no dail tone or any thing please please help i cannot use the internet
 
Well, first check and replace the phone cable going to the wall. Next check the jack by plugging a regular phone into the cable going into the modem and seeing if you get a dialtone. If you do not get a tone, its a problem with your lines. If you do get a tone, your modem is fried.

if i use system restore i can get all my connections back but i don't want to as i have installed loads since the last restore:confused:
 
I'm not asking you to restore or reinstall Windows. I asked you to check the cables and make sure that the modem is not damaged. Did you check all your cables and the modem itself to make sure its not a hardware issue?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
