I was given a new ADSL Sprint Modem when my modem died, but I have AT&T as my
ISP. Since i don't have an Earthlink account, installation using the Sprint
setup CD is aborted. The Network Wizard says it cannot find needed software
when I check to "search CD and E:/" locations. If I have the Wizard do the
automatic set up, and fill in user name and password, I get Error 59( no
communication with server?). AT&T Tech could only provide type of
connection, IP and subnet, and Sprint tech support phone number who are never
available when I've called.
How can I set up an internet connection manually using XP/sp2? Help will be
greatly appreciated, plus it will prevent me from becoming bald ! haha

Unless you are trying to write a program using .NET Framework that will
accomplish the configuration for you, your question is very much
off-topic in this newsgroup.

You will have much better luck finding a different newsgroup, one
specifically for questions such as yours.

Write a program...???? lol...Heck, it's apparent I can't even post in the
correct newsgroup, for I did not intend my question for this group!

Thanks for taking the time to let me know I was in the wrong group.
