Unhappy NO pages will load after internet connection has been made!


I am using an Intel536ep hardware-based modem. Just right now, I installed the modem driver. I assume the driver compiled successfully, because I can connect to the internet with no problem. In fact, I am connecting at 54,666!

But after I connect to the internet (dial-up) I attempt to use Mozzila 1.6 to browse, but no pages will load! The page starts to load and maybe 10-20 kb gets loaded, but then the page just STOPS.

I also installed Netscape 7.2, but the same thing happend.

I assume there is nothing wrong with my ISP because I am typing this using Windows fine. And the installation of both Mozilla and Netscape appear to have been successful.

After I created my internet connection, I used mozilla 1.4 that came with Mandrake for a few minutes. It was SOOO slow! Then once that worked, I installed Mozzilla 1.6, and that when I could no longer load ANY web pages.

I keep getting time-outs. Is there some program other than KPPP that I can use to create my internet setup?

Things were going fine on Red Hat, but then I decised to switch over to Mandrake and I'm beginning to think it was a BIG mistake!!!

Angry Mandrake 9.2. No web surfing any longer ?

I upgraded Mandrake 9.1 to 9.2 recently and am now running in deep problems with internet.
It looks like that kppp runs OK and that connection is made.
But I simply cannot load any page in any browser in the distribution. Ftp does not work neither.
my old US robotic Messenger modem had so far no problem under previous versions of Mandrake.
Any clue to fix this ?
Thanks in advance

Note : rather subjective, but 9.2 is much slower than 9.1, isn't it ?

Did you try entering DNSīs under KPPP settings?
