I am embarrassed to be asking this...but here goes.
How do you set Mozilla to use a dialup connection to connect to the Internet? My 1.0 version seems to be expecting to be on a LAN or cable or DSL. I can't find an equivalent to IE's dialog under Tools Options Connection.
Thanks.
Tony.
 
Under preferences > advanced > proxies make sure "direct connection to the internet" is selected, assuming you are dialing up from home to an ISP.

No other Mozilla configurations should be necessary. The IE connection manager is still the place where you input your connection settings.

Side note: It may seem confusing that the connection manager is buried in IE, but remember that Microsoft has been trying to blur the distinction between the browser and the operating system for several years.
