    I never experienced dial-up internet and never want to but my aunt needs it set up on her dinosaur of a pc.

    Its a favour and ive told her its useless but she is used to it after years of use. Her settings got deleted when i re-installed windows on the pc and now i have no idea how to set up her connection again.

    Anybody wanna guide me?

    1892 150 150 is the Eircom (or was?) dial up connecting number, just set up a new dial up connection with this number, username/password blank,

    Edit: If you need instructions on launching the new dial up connection wizard, see HERE.

    iol (Ireland on line) is now BT, so not Eircom .

    there was a number 1891 121121 think that was the pay service though.
