established. Every time a dial sequence is run, the following messages are
displayed:
b
'Error 680: No dial tone'
b 'Error 678: The dialed computer is not answering' or 'Error 678: No
answer'

specified with a single digit (0-9), while some systems use several digits or
the flash button. When you first setup your Internet connection, Windows
prompts you to enter this number in the 'General Information'. Even if the
number for accessing an outside line is entered, problems can occur when
trying to establish a connection. If this is the case, check the following
