I have recently installed PCBSD 7.1.1 on my HDD. But i cannot connect to the internet my modem is detected by the KPPP i gave the username and the password but to no avail after the some time it hangsups and welcome screen is shown again where i have to type my Password to log back in to the account. some times it will connect If KPPP is not the only tool I would like to know any specific tools are available for pcbsd to log into the internet.

Does it give you an error message or does it just hang up and ask you for your password again?

The problem could be with your ISP and not KPPP.

Thanks Galraedia i got an error message also /etc/resolv.conf cannot read or missing
this message is shown sometimes. I got an internet connection with KDE version of KPPP of a linux distribution. same thing is not in PCBSD

So you have not been able to connect to the Internet at all using KPPP in PC-BSD? Question. What is the model of your modem and which ISP are you trying to connect to?

Try this through the terminal:

"sudo nano /etc/ppp/peers/kppp-options" and change "#noauth" to "noauth"

Thanks But /etc/ppp/peers/kppp-options is not there in my PC Upto /etc/ppp/ is there
/peers/kppp-options is missing. I think KPPP maybe not be fully loaded by PCBSD installer. Incase that is the case please let me know. i am using a Huawei Ec 325 USB modem which works fine with ubuntu and KDE linux distro called the bosslinux . Is there any other method to connect using the huawei EC 325 modem

Thanking you in anticipation
