Hello all i've just started using outpost firewall and the problem is that when i click Internet Explorer on laptop i'm not getting the auto dial coming up on my PC which has the broadband connection to the web, i can get web access but i have to connect to the web first with PC, have just changed over from sygate which worked ok i would click IE on laptop and dial up box would come up on PC and i would have access to web PC is setup to allow Internet connection sharing with all box's ticked.
PS All PC's are showing up on wi-fi network and file sharing is ok.

have you added your network as trusted interface ? and just to check does it work if you disable outpost ?

Why are you trying to dial out if you have broadband?? do you mean ISDN??

It's good old tiscali with sagem modem which you still have to dial out for broadband connection it's not always on. If i disable outpost it works ok plus if i use sygate there is no problem, wi-fi network is setup as adhoc if that helps.

Need to mess about with Outpost then. It's obviously the lone cause of your grief.
