How do I make Dial-Up Networking Redial Automatically?

In Windows Vista:


By default, a dial-up connection redials three times (at one-minute intervals) if it cannot reach the remote access server. Also by default, a connection does not redial if the line is dropped. To change this, go to the Start menu, to Control Panel, then Network and Internet, Network and Sharing Center, and click Manage Network Connections. Right-click the dial-up connection to change and select Properties. On the "Options" tab, you can change the redial attempts and time between redial attempts.


In Windows XP:

In the Start menu, right-click on "My Network Places" and choose Properties. In the Network Connections window that will open, right-click on the dial-up connection icon and choose Properties again. Redial settings are on the "Options" tab.


In Windows 95/98:

Double-click on the "My Computer" icon. When the My Computer window opens, double-click on the "Dial-Up Networking" icon. Go to the Connections pull-down menu and choose Settings. Place a check in the box marked "Redial" and then configure the number of times to retry and how long to wait between dial attempts to your preference.
