easy way to do this is to display the expanded Service Connection Progress
messages. These messages describe the current stage of the login procedure. Press
Down on the navigator at any point during login to display these messages.
Viewing the Network Log
If viewing the expanded Service Connection Progress messages does not give you
enough information to find out why you cannot connect to your ISP or dial-in
server, take a look at the Network Log. The Network Log lists all of the
communication that occurs between your modem and your dial-in server during
the login procedure. The information in the Network Log can help your ISP or
your system administrator pinpoint where the login procedure communication

To view the Network Log:
1. From the Network Preferences screen, tap the Menu icon .
