Every comma is worth 1 second of pause.

So, you could to the following, for example:
18001112222,,,,,,,,

In case the other option doesn't work! :)

I didn't even really know if it was an option with Windows until I looked up the documentation and poked around in the settings. Anyway, your welcome and hope it works for you.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644628 Fri, 04 Aug 2006 17:00:04 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644512 Dave54321 : mlerner,

Thank you very much, I appreciate your help.

I use Linux myself, and I have to setup these options on my sister's laptop with Windows XP. I don't have Windows on my computer to mess around with right now otherwise I would have poked around at it myself. I am not all that familiar with dialup connections anyways.

Once again, thank you. I am very pleased that this will work because I really had no idea if it was possible or not.

Cheers,
Dave]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644512 Fri, 04 Aug 2006 16:39:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644251 mlerner : To use a calling card for long-distance dialing
Open Phone and Modem Options in Control Panel.
On the Dialing Rules tab, click the location to modify, and then click Edit.
To create a new location, click New.

On the Calling Card tab, click the calling card you want to use. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644251 Fri, 04 Aug 2006 15:54:33 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644198 Dave54321 : Unfortunately not, it is just outside of the range for the closest local dialup number.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644198 Fri, 04 Aug 2006 15:45:28 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644072 mlerner : Is there no local dialup number to where you're going?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16644072 Fri, 04 Aug 2006 15:26:46 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16643585 Dave54321 : I called Sympatico Tech Support and got some lady from India. Not only did she not provide me with any Yes or No answers, but she could not even understand what I was saying to her. What a waste of 15 minutes of my time. Anyways, I thought I'd get an answer quicker here anyways.

Situation:

- Going up north near Haliburton for 1 week
- Dialup number is long distance (too far from Haliburton)

Now I have an International PrePaid Phone Card from AT&T laying around here with several hours left on it. To use it you have to dial the toll free number first, then a 10-digit PIN number, followed by the number you wish to dial.

Is it possible (under Windows XP) to create a dialup account that will make use of this phone card?

Thanks,
Dave]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16643585 Fri, 04 Aug 2006 14:01:15 EDT
