Sounds like you are doing this via command prompt and aint scripted yet. Going by what you said.. it sounds like you need to tyep: add 0 0 HISADDR to get your route started. also make sure your ppp is PPP which means ppp is in packet mode. If you were a little more explicit on how you were making the connection and what commands you were sending and if you were doing it via the term built in to ppp. Ron On Mon, Jan 05, 1998 at 02:46:22PM -0800, Shan-Min Chao wrote: > Hi! > I am a beginner at FreeBSD and have some questions concerning logging on > to my ISP.
