TP 600,770/ED/X/Z - DUN fails after removing IE 4.0
Applicable to: World-Wide
SYMPTOM:
After uninstalling IE 4.0, Dial-Up Networking (DUN) no longer functions properly.
CONFIGURATION:
ThinkPad 600 or 770 series with the ACP modem running Windows 95 OSR2.1 where IE 4.0 was uninstalled.
Note: Not all ThinkPad 600 and 770's come with an ACP modem.
SOLUTION:
There are two possible ways to correct this symptom:
1. Create a new DUN connection to correct the telephone.ini file.
2. Recreate the telephone.ini file:
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The uninstallation process of IE 4.0 modifies the telephone.ini file (this file is required for use with DUN) that prevents the DUN from dialling out. For additional information on recreating the telephone.ini file, refer to MS article Q120221 or Q189388 on the Microsoft web site (http://www.microsoft.com).
