Oooops, that should read 0845 602 1131 Rik.

Rik · Dec 09, 2011, 11:49:29

It should, sorry Rick.

Having a spot of bother
Getting error 691 user/password not recognised .... maybe authentication problem.

Am using *******@idnet.gw5
password ea3*****
phone no. 08456021131

Any ideas please Rik?

You use the same username and password as you do for ADSL, Rick, so if they are correct, you'd best talk to IDNet.

Will do.
Cheers Rik

Have Win7 64bit and am getting precisely nowhere with 56k dial up due to incompatibility issues with modems. Eg: all settings correct but met with error code 691 before I hit IDNet.
IDNet state I have modem compatibility after checking out all settings so, anyone successfully using win7/64 dial up, pls advise which modem/settings you're using.
Thanks in advance

Which modem are you using Rick i.e. make , usb or PCI ?

sobranie · Dec 10, 2011, 19:45:51

One I purchased and sent back today (USB type)

and

One I borrowed a few days back with no name on but have since reurned to owner. (USB type)

Unsure whether you can source this in the UK but it does seem to work with Win 7 64bit

The chipset is Conexant so there maybe UK equivalents

Thanks.

This is my last stab

Fingers crossed but if this one doesn't work then I'll be asking a few more questions at IDNet.
