Dialup Internet Access

Posts Tagged ‘user’

My club is too cheap to get DSL and is using dial up and just got a computer running Vista. There are a couple of user at the club who need to be able just to run a program that does a file transfer. The problem is that I haven’t been able to get the dial up connection to fire with anything besides Firefox or IE. How do I make Vista do the dialup when I run one of the file transfer programs. I’ve tried ping, nslookup, etc. I suppose that I could make it dial by running IE and putting in a delay, but that is QUITE inelegant. Can you do better?
I actually have the “dial when a connection is needed” option already set. It often dials for IE, but not always and rarely, if ever, dials for SFTP or for any of the other file transfer programs. This is something that is specific to Vista (and rather annoying at that).

hi friends i would like 2 know if there is a program out there in the big bad internet ….that automatically dials an dial-up connection..when provided with proper user name and password at particular given time…….in win98 (need it badly….plz help)

What are some good online multiplayer games for a slow connection user like dialup ?. I am bored and want to have some fun .

How would I create a telnet bbs on my Mac. I am a Mac user running OS X (10.4.7) I have DSL no dialup. I can’t do a regular modem bbs because I am hooked up through the internet wirelssely on a router and my connection on the desktop is DSL.

There are four or 5 computers connected to a modem , the connection speed is like 400kbs, and there is one user that is always downloading videos and music while we are working, and on top of that all the nortons are always updating, so sometimes we ARE REALLY BUSY and the connections gets worse than dialup.. I tried system manager 1.18. but it didnt work..can I disable the downloads on windows? What do you recommend?
