How do I set up Mozilla to dial (connect) automatically? (Windows)

In Windows 98, open the Control Panel (Start | Settings | Control Panel). Double-click Internet Options. Select the Connections tab. Set the dial option to "Dial whenever a network connection is not present". Also, select one of the dialup connections and press the "Set Default" button.

In Windows 2000/XP open the Control Panel (Start | Settings | Control Panel). Double-click Administrative Tools. Double-click Services. Look for the following services:

  • Remote Access Connection Manager
  • Remote Access Auto Connection Manager
  • Telephony

After you find each service right click it and from the menu chose Properties. On the General Tab look for the box "Start Up Type" then choose "Automatic".

Set all those services to automatic.

Note: Mozilla cannot auto-disconnect. However you can download HangUp and use that small utility to hangup (Windows.
