dial up internet access

Postby Bongtrees » Sat Oct 14, 2006 6:25 pm

I am going away for a few days and friends are staying who need Internet access. I don't want them to use my computer in case they cause problems and/or read my personal files.

I have another computer I can let them use but need to know if a. they can just dial up a connection and I can pay for the call..... if so what number do we use? or b. can I give them details of my Ya.com account and they programme the computer to use those settings? (we don't have adsl)

You can use 908 200220 but you have to set up an account with the username 'telefonicanet@telefonicanet' and password 'telefonicanet'

Dial-up connections

I do have a telefonica disk that sorts it out for you - but I´m trying to get my head around how to send you the disk content over the ´net. Any ideas? I´ll have a few goes and see if I can send it as an attachment to your pm address. :shock:

In case Trooperman doesn't manage it this site may help:

It's in Spanish but is quite self-explanatory.

Your private message box on the forum doesn´t appear to allow me to add an attachment. If you can send me your url via my box I´ll attempt the wizardry!

Try as I may I cant set up the Telefonica dial up account for my friend.

I use a Mac and have managed to set up a second user account however, most applications are on the dashboard but Safari is not.

Mac problem

I have a Mac, but I am not quite sure what your problem is.

You need to set up the dial connection in your network settings. You will find that under system preferences in the Apple Menu. I guess you are using OSX?
