Using OS 10.2...


Does anyone know if when using an internal modem you can switch users and the modem will stay connected? or will it hang up?

If it does hang up, is there a way to keep the connection while switching users?

Thanks

Go to the Network preference pane. Then select "Internal Modem" from the "Show:" menu. Click the PPP tab and click "PPP Options...". Make sure that the "Disconnect when user logs out is unchecked.
