    I just downloaded all the stuff for the Free VerizonWireless Broadband via cell phone (yes, i know it uses airtime). Well, I was trying to make a dialup connection for it (following the guide) and when I try to click new connection and try to use dialup, I cant select the radio button for it, the text is faded and its unselecable. I think this might have happened when I was using a guide on the processes that i dont need on. Now which processes do I need running to use dialup connections?
