Dial-Back with Windows95

Some servers use dial-back as a security feature. How this works is that after you connect to the server

it automatically dials you back for verification.

To get Windows95 to hang up the phone and not end the PPP client:

  1. Open the Control Panel
  2. Double Click on the Modems icon
  3. Select your modem
  4. Click on the Properties button
  5. Select Connection tab
  6. Click on the Advanced tab
  7. In the Extra Settings area enter &C0 S0=1 - They are zeros not "o's"

The S0=1 sets your modem for Auto-Answer after 1 ring
The &C0 avoids ending the PPP client.
