They probably know less than you (bit busy but I could dig out an article to show how shoddy they are if desired!). Are you ok once you get connected? Do you get any error messages? Filters in every phone socket? Changed anythign recently? Title: Re: computer help Post by: nosey-p on May 02, 2007, 10:36:00 PM when connecting i get error 0720, which is settings not correctly instold (some think like that)
but the people at virgin talk me through all that and all seems well tried re-instoling if i keep on pressing the connect button i finale get connected after about 7/8 attempts, but don't allways when i do get connected i stay connected i borrowed a WXP disk and run a scan but found no think wrong Title: Re: computer help Post by: nosey-p on May 02, 2007, 10:39:50 PM yes a have filters in
