I've run the ipconfig /all but I'm not certain whether the modem is even being pciked up??

I have some form of LAN?High Speed connection - moving over the network icon shows "1394 connection Speed: 400Mbps"

I'm making an assumption that my PC is not "seeing" the modem?

Any ideas chaps?

Have you told the pc to never dial up?
(to do this go into settings and then internet options select the connection tab click never dial up. then click lan settings on the same tab. click automatically detect settings then check privacy tab set at medium for now.)

Followed Robin walkers information from the start?

Check what Robin tells you to do here

Also how to register here again Robins page which is very helpful

If all else fails pm Bill C he lives somewhere near you and is extremely good at sorting out modem hiccups :D

Edited Debsy has sorted it :) enjoy your speed..
