Fiber-optic access broadband is faster and more stable than ADSL transmission, so many friends now choose the fiber-optic access when they install broadband. But when I installed the FTTB dialer under Windows XP, I encountered a problem:
Cause of failure
In Windows XP, follow the steps under Windows 98 to install the FTTB private dialer and enter your username and password, and the system requires a reboot. After restarting the system, double-click the dialer, it is strange that it requires the author to establish a new connection, and in the past under Windows 98, you can dial the Internet directly. Establish a connection again, and still do so.
Fault analysis
Because in the installation of the FTTB dialer system has prompted some files can not be verified by Microsoft, asked me whether to continue, when the author chose "Yes." So I suspect that the dial-up program provided by Telecom does not support Windows XP. The author downloads the latest version of the dialer, but the failure is still. Is there a problem with the NIC installation or setup? In Device Manager, I do not see an exclamation point or conflict problems, and the network card is correctly identified. Then open the Network Neighborhood, the author found that in addition to the original "local connection" in the Network Neighborhood, there are two more "dial-up connections" marked with a red fork. These two connections were previously established by the author, and the wrong connection shows the following information about "dial-up connection disabled due to network cable unplugged or improperly connected". But the author before installing Windows XP and did not plug out the network cable, how can this hint?
Trouble shooting
The author finally recourse to China Telecom, the problem can be solved. You do not need to install any FTTB-specific dialer in Windows XP, you can use a dial-up connection that comes with Windows XP, and if you install a FTTB dialer, you may encounter problems with the author. The specific method of operation is as follows: Click the "start → program → attachment → newsletter → New Connection Wizard" to enter the New Connection wizard interface, select "Connect to internet→ manually set my connection → Connect with a broadband connection that requires username and password", enter any ISP name, such as FTTB, and then click " Next "Enter your username and password, and when you're done, double-click the FTTB connection icon in your network Neighborhood to get online." Through this method we can also like "wired" so as to do a boot on the network state, so do not have to dial every time the Internet.
