All you have to do is alter the number your computer is dialing by adding :
*52,,
to the front of the number your computer is dialing.
My ISP dial number is 087303030 so if i had this problem, I'd change it to:
*52,,087303030
To do this... Next time you connect, before you press the dial or connect button, click on properties.
This will bring up the control panel for the dialer. Simply add the *52,, to the beginning of the number you see in 'Telephone Number'.
This should solve the problem aaand allow you to enjoy the convenience of call waiting while you are not surfin the net.
Piece of cake.
PM for further assistance or contact your internet service provider.
Another reason Windows XP disconnects is if Outlook Express (email programme) is set to "Hang up after sending and receiving". This is usually set by default.
To check this, open Outlook Express. Click on 'Tools' at the top. Click on 'Options' then click on the 'Connection' tab and under the Dial up heading, make sure that the "Hang up after sending and recieving" box is not ticked.
