yo!

i've been using loads of different ISPs (by using planetweb) to play PSO for ages now, but when a mate of mine who just got a DC tried to, PSO wouldn't let him connect. however, both planetweb (the american browser) and dreamkey both connect fine. he tried picking up the up the phone while it was supposed to be dialling, but it wasn't. he even uses the same ISP as me (08002go.com) and i've had no problems whatsoever. has anyone else had similar problems? have sega changed PSO since release so that it won't work with non-dreamarena accounts?

i'm confused :(

erm, sorry guys, ignore that...

the actual problem was that it wasn't saving the settings properly - it kept switching to pulse dialling and kept enabling 'blind dial', whatever that is, but common sense told me that it was A Bad Thing...

anyway, i tried wiping the dial-up settings with the dreamkey disc, then re-did them with planetweb again, and it worked fine.

hurrah!
