SYMPTOMS When you change the options under Connection settings in the Internet Options window, from Never dial a connection to Always dial my default connection, the setting seems to change, but when you try to access the Internet, or to view the actual connection setting, it reverts back to Never dial a connection. CAUSE This issue occurs when you have installed Internet Call Waiting for PC by Bell Canada. RESOLUTION To use the System Configuration Utility tool to disable the Internet Call Waiting item (which is located on the Startup tab), follow these steps: Click Start, click Run, type MSConfig, and then click OK.


On the Startup tab, click to unselect the Internet Call Display option. Click Apply, and then click OK. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Yes. MORE INFORMATION For more information on Internet Call Display, refer to one of the following Bell Canada Web sites: http://www.bell.ca/en/home.asp http://www.bell.ca/en/minisite/products/icd2/app_frameset.asp
