Answer» Hi all, I am fairly new here
Although Iam faced with a rather odd problem, that I personally have never encountered before...
When I am trying to create a network CONNECTION, via my modem (56k), I go through all the usuall procedures, Network Connections, Add, Connect to Internet, Connect Manually, then I am presented with this screen:
As you can see I am UNABLE to create a connection using a "dailup" modem.
I am worried that it might be some of the security applications conflicting, causing some kind of problem with setting up the connection :/
I am 99.9% sure theyre is no malware or infections on my pc, as I am a paranoid user.
Also, the computer has no access to the internet at all.
Computer Info:
Windows XP x64 SP1
1.8ghz 64 bit Dualcore 2 2GB DDR2 RAM 280GB Memory CD/DVDRW
Security Setup
Windows XP x64 SP1
Resident AV: NOD 32 F-Secure (BACKUP)

I would appreciate if someone has any in sight into this problem
Kind Regards, Peter.I KNOW it sounds simple but the only time I have had that problem is if the drivers are not correct for your modem or it is not installed at all. I would try a reinstall of the device and its drivers.Check the modem in Device Manager. Does it show up OK?
