I have been having this trouble for some time, it became an inconvenience, but now lately its been getting annoying as the computer is getting slower, so can be about 10 minutes just to connect.
What happens is, after clicking connect to > tiscali broadband it shows teh connecting prompt, 'verifying username and password' about 30 odd seconds later the 721 error appears. Redialling does not work.
I then turn it off, leave it maybe 20-30 seconds and try connect again. Now it will either connect or get the error 721 again. Sometimes it connects after turning off and on again once, twice, three times or maybe more. But only then does it work.
I have re-installed the drivers, using old and new, and enabling or disabling the firewalls, Zonealarm or WIndows FW. Neither affect it.
I am thinking that its windows network software, maybe sockets.
I remember it worked until some windows updates, which am unable to un-install.
Mabe there are some logs that might tell me a bit more about whats happening where the problem actually lies.
