STEP 3 - Windows 95/98 Dial-up Networking setup

1. Double-click My Computer. Double-click Dial-Up Networking.

If you have not used Dial-Up Networking before, a Welcome to Dial-Up Networking window appears. Select Next

Otherwise, if you have previously used Dial-Up Networking, the Dial-Up Networking window appears. Double click the Make New Connection icon.

 In either case, the Make New Connection window appears.

2. The Make New Connection window requests that you specify a name for the service you are creating and the device you will use to connect to that service.

In the Type a name for the computer you are dialing field, enter a name of your choice for the connection you are creating. For example IDSL Modem.

Under the Select a device or Select a modem list, there may well be several modems installed on your computer. Select IDSL MODEM at 115200 as the modem. Click the Next button.

 

 

3. In the new window you need to define a telephone number to call. 

The IDSL Modem does not require a telephone number. However, Windows requires that you enter a number. Simply leave Area Code blank, and add a single figure 1 to the Telephone number field. The Country or region code will also not be used, so leave whatever entry is there. Click the Next button.

 

 

4. The new window should indicate that the newly named connection has been created. Click the Finish button.

If Dial-Up Networking has not been used before, a Dialog Box will appear, informing you that "Dial-Up Networking needs to install the Microsoft Dial-Up Adapter". Click OK.

You will be required to insert the Windows 95 or Windows 98 CD-ROM.

The main Dial-Up Networking window will appear.

5. You now need to configure the connection properties.

Highlight the new IDSL MODEM icon in this window. Click on File. Then click on Properties.

 

6. From the Properties page, select the General tab. 

If your operating system is Windows 95 remove the tick against Use country code and area code option. 

If your operating system is Windows 98 remove the tick against Use area code and dialing properties option. 

 

7. Click on the Server Types tab. Remove all ticks under Advanced Options. Under Allowed Network Protocols, ensure that only TCP/IP is ticked. Click OK.

This completes the Windows 95/98 Dial-up Networking setup

Your installation is complete and you are now ready connect to the Internet.

STEP 4 - Connect to the Internet

In the Dial-Up Networking window double click on the IDSL MODEM icon. This brings up the Connect To window.

To establish the IDSL MODEM connection, your User name and Password must be entered in this window. These will be allocated when you subscribe to specific services.


Click on Connect to access Internet. If connection is successful, open a web browser and surf!

EXTRA POINTS:
For convenience, the IDSL MODEM icon may be dragged from the Dial-Up Networking window to create a Shortcut icon on the Desktop.
If the IDSL MODEM is used to access multiple services, several differently named IDSL MODEM icons can be created, each with its own User name and Password.
