Default HELP! BT Voyager 220V/2091

Cheers Alan,

Unfortunately, the PC is an old Tiny one and didn't come with the
Ethernet connection - not sure if i could pick one up for next to
nothing or not....the PC was pretty much given to me, so not wanting to
spend much on it!
Just leaves me with the USB connection - The other unfortunate thing
is, it wont connect through dial up either, not sure why! with the
broadband, BT gave us a couple of free dial up numbers, but always
tells me the remote computer dialed doesn't respond! very anoying!

I may just scrap the PC and get another one! i cant afford anything
new, so just go for a lowish spec Win ME or something - we only really
want it as the internet through the brothers laptop is very restricted
(Ebay and Hotmail etc are blocked!)

Well, the 2091 can run with the USB connection (Blue cable this time) but
unfortunately Win98 is not very good at USB.
The following web site may help you resolve some issues
http://www.usbman.com/. Try scrolling down and looking on the left for
trouble shooter to check you have everything set up correctly.
In terms of the dialup not working, ensure the Firewall is not blocking
things. Disable it for a few mins whilst you try it if all else fails and
then don't forget to reactivate it!
