Please can somebody Help-me: I have been able to download and Install Fedora Core2 Used KPPP to Configured my Intel-536ep-PCI-Modem. My ISP provider is MSN.
My Modem can dialup and connect to MSN fine, because a pop-up
window is now reporting the Baud-Rate, the time is also being updated.
That's all I get,
but if I click Mozilla for Web-browsing, Mozilla comes up and just sit there doing nothing for a long time.
Finally it will say the web address cannot be found or not correct
but this is not true because i use:
http://www.google.com http://www.mozilla.org http://www.msn.com
none of them works. Being a Linux novice, I wonder if there is any kind of configuration file that needs to be fine-tuned.

Sep 15 19:56:36 localhost pppd[2559]: secondary DNS address 209.244.0.4
I noticed that the Local IP and Remote IP address changes all the time but the
Primary DNS and Secondary DNS stays thesame as shown above:
I might say I issued this commad many times.
Primary DNS address stays the-same at : 209.244.0.3
Secondary DNS address stays the-same at : 209.244.0.4
but Local IP and Remote IP changes each time.
May I also add that using "http://216.239.39.99"; got me to Google's page with ease.
Please can anybody make sense out of this so I can browse the web using Mozilla 1.6
I dont know what else to do, Linux makes me feel so stupid.
I will appreciate and try any help, any quess, solid or not.
