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:
