A friend of mine ( after numerous disscussions with me ) decided to switch from a PC to a Mac. She bought a powerbook dvi 667 and has been tring to connect to the internet via dialup. Problem is that once on, the connection fails after about 10 min. I tried everything I knew but its hard since I am not familiar with dialup in os X. I unchecked the disconnect if idle option, but the problem still occurs.
I tried to use my account from earthlink and same thing happened (she's running the new aol for X). So all I can conclude its something with her set up. Has anyone expirienced this problem ?

(i've searched these forums but none really apply to her situation. )
