    How do i query the dial up connections present in the system & use any of them to dial and connect to the internet?

    I want to query the dial up connections present in the system, which will
    host my application.

    My user want to connect automatically to the internet if the dialup
    connection was hanged.

      Anjan,

      If you are going to connect through a dial-up connection, your best bet
      would be to call the InternetAutodia l in the WinInet API. You will have to
      do this through the P/Invoke layer, of course and you can find a definition
      at http://www.pinvoke.net.

      If you need greater access to dial up functionality, then you will want
      to look at the RAS API.

          Hi,

          If you need to use RAS you will have to P/invoke the RAS API (not an easy
          task).
          If you want to dial the default connection then go to IE and set up a
          default connection, then in your code just se WebReqest and it will dial the
          default connection.

          IF nevertheless you need to use RAS postback cause I have the code you will
          need :)

              I am inteseted in RAS, as my client is not very familier with IE connection
              settings. So, can you provide me the code? you may send it to
              anjan011@gmail. com

              Thnx very much
