Solve : Unable to Create Network Connection?

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.

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?
