suse 9.0--can't connect to the internet


Recommended Posts

just installed suse 9.0 pro on my computer ( pt4. 1.8 GHz , win xp pro / suse 9.0 pro, dial-up modem). it's my first contact to linux and i'm not a tech.

the installation process without any problems. first i tried to access the internet. i can hear the dial-up tone but it doesn't connect. during the configuration i was asked, in which of these about 8 countries i live in and what is the name of the isp. but i don't live in one of these countries. so i opened a new isp but in the usa because i had no choice of another one. but i don't think that this will cause this problem because i used the phone number of my isp here.

can you help and don't forget i'm not a tech.

thanks a lot
