BTOpenworld
Chalkface
Chat n Surf
Cloud Nine Internet
Compass Magazine
Cornwall College

Excuse me if I'm being ignorant (as I said, I've never set up an account before) but does that mean all I have do do is put the telephone number we use to dial up t the internet (via Chalkface) somewhere in the Amiga's browesr settings and all will be o.k?

Thanks for your rapid response by the way :-)

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear.

I want to connect to the internet using AmigaOS4.0 (I'm only going to play with Linux a little until I get AmigaOS4.0), I guess I'll be waiting a few months.

Anyhow, thanks for the advice.  Now that i know it can be done I should be able to have a play and get things working.

Cheers.
