Fedora Users — Earthlink not helping.

Sorry if this isn't an appropriate topic but I'm at a loss. Earthlinkrefuses to help.

Ok, I've been running redhat/fedora on my home computer for about twoyears now. I've had service with Earthlink for over five years. Acouple of months ago I went into the hospital for a partial footamputation. I wasn't able to pay my ISP so they deactivated my accountbut kept it on their servers.I was able to pay them a couple of weeks ago. They reactivated theservice. Now I can log into the ISP and it accepts the name/passwordfine and I stay on line. However, email and browser can't find anyservers. Everything is the same as before. In fact I am currentlyusing a Seanet account on the very same computer right now and have beenfor three weeks.

Earthlink support on the phone refuses to even look into the problembecause I run Linux. Everythingon my end is ok, I believe, but theywon't even bother to check their end. On-line support is as bad. Ineed to click on operating system and once I click on Unix-Linux-Other Iget a pop-up saying that they can not give me help.

I'm hoping that someone here that uses Earthlink can go over thesettings with me. I'm on dial up 56k on the only phone line I have.I'm running FC2 and KDE and using Thunderbird and Firefox. I'veeverything set up using SYSTEM SETINGS > NETWORK. The modem should beconfigured ok, since it works with Seanet. And everything in theEarthlink section (ppp1 or ppp0. I'm using ppp2 for Seanet) looks okBut I'd like to double check.

Or does anyone else have some helpful info? I don't really want to getrid of Earthlink, but I'm not going to pay when I get no real access.

If this is a bad place for this, does anyone know of another list orforum I can try?


Thanks
