internet connection

[Aaron Wels]

I recently reinstalled XP on my computer. Upon completion
of the install I found that I could no longer connect to
the Internet. My settings for my connection were all
erased. I tried to set up a new connection but my computer
will not let me select connect through a phone line. The
only option that it will let me select is connect via
broadband. My modem is working properly and the computer
is recognizing it. I have reinstalled windows and even
removed and reinstalled my modem. Nothing is working.
Please help!

Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\RasMan\PPP\EAP

Look for each of the subkeys named 25 and 26. Right click on each these
subkeys and select Export. This creates a backup, just in case. Then right
click on each of the 25 and 26 subkeys and select Delete.

See, http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 87, Left column,
Dial up Modem or PPPoE is Unavailable for small REG file that will delete
these two keys for you. Note: The REG file does not create a backup.
