Changing the phone number is very simple. Here are instructions for doing it in Windows 95/98/ME.

1. Double Click on 'My Computer.'

2. Double Click on 'Dial-Up Networking.'

3. Click Once to highlight 'Paradise' or 'paradise.net' or whatever your connection is called. (DON'T Double Click it!)

4. Click 'File' and select 'Properties' on the dropdown menu.

5. Click in the box under 'Telephone number:' where it currently has the current number you are dialing, replace this with the new number you want to connect with.

6. Click 'OK' button.

You can now close the Dialup Networking and My Computer windows. That's all that is required.
