Re: [ECS] TVL Question? Mark Gilmore Mon, 18 Sep 2000 07:36:52 -0400

Hi Joe,
ECS does nothing in particular, other than running WPDL.EXE
to download the TV-listing web pages (which SHOULD automatically
trigger an ISP dialup).

Is there something "unique" about your ISP setup that might
prevent this from happening ?

Is ECS reporting any error ?
After setting TVL-ENABLED to TRUE, listen for the error bell,
and click the message-line dropdown (at top) in case it scrolled
off-screen.
What is the resulting status of "TVL DL STATUS" ?
