You can change the number your computer dials simply by changing it in
the "Connect To" screen when you connect (assuming you use the
Dial-up Networking connection and not Internet Explorer or a third party
program) however the change will not be permanent. To permanently change
the phone number in a dial-up networking connection follow the steps
below.
Step 1 : Double click on the "My
Computer" icon .
 |
(Note: if double clicking does not work, highlight the icon by
clicking on it one time then press the "ENTER" or "RETURN"
key on your keyboard.) |
Step 2 : Double click on the "Dial-Up
Networking" icon.
 |
These screens were captured in Windows 98, 95 users will see a
slightly different window. |
Step 3 : Click the "right"
mouse button on the connection you want to change the phone number in
and a menu will appear. Click on "Properties" with the "left"
mouse button.

You can also highlight the connection then click on "File"
> " Properties " |
Step 4 : Change the phone
number in the box titled "Telephone number" to the new number
you want this connection to dial then click on "OK".
