John,

No. You gain nothing by staying on dialup. Millions of folks have moved to
broadband, with equipment like yours. We can help you, and we can walk you thru
fixing your problems, if you'll work with us.

Looking at what you provided before, I'm betting you typed "ipconfig" not
"ipconfig /all". Try again.
1) Hit the Start button in your taskbar.
2) Hit Run.
3) Type "cmd" (less the "").
4) Hit the Enter key.
5) This will open a command window. Into the command window, type
"ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt" (again less the ""), and hit Enter.
6) Start Notepad.
7) Open C:\ipconfig.txt.
Select all text (Ctrl - A).
9) Copy selected text (Ctrl - C).
10) Migrate to this window, and Reply to this post.
11) Paste into your reply (Ctrl - V).

John,

You can do this a couple ways (probably more):
1) Start Notepad. Do File - Open - find the Local Disk (C - Find
ipconfig.txt - double click on ipconfig.txt.
2) Start Windows Explorer (NOT Internet Explorer!) - Find Local Disk (C -
Find ipconfig.txt - double click on ipconfig.txt.

Chuck, have gone through this several times and it is the same every time,

Chuck , have done this several times, and I get the same result,
so I conclude that is all the info there is on the PC. John.
