Establishing the Connection to the Internet
You should establish an Internet connection using the Connection Software before launching
your browser (or any other Internet associated software such as FTP, telnet, etc).
Start the Connection Software and wait until the signal strength indicator on the Network tab
indicates that there is sufficient signal strength for the connection. At this point, the button
should be highlighted and have the text “Connect” displayed on button which may be clicked.
The user is automatically taken to the ISP tab so that the progress of the connection to the
Internet may be observed. When the connection to the ISP has been established, the status
bar should indicate that the session is active and the button is now highlighted but the text
changes from “Connect” to “Disconnect”. For convenience, the Connection Software is
automatically minimized once the connection is established, but can be restored by clicking on
the Wireless Broadband Modem icon on the tooltray.
Go to your desktop and double-click on your Internet browser icon to connect to the Internet.
You can configure your browser to set any web page as your home page. To set your browser
home page, see the FAQs in Appendix C.
You may terminate the internet connection in many ways;
Right click the Wireless Broadband Modem icon on the tooltray, and select disconnect from the
menu
Click the Wireless Broadband Modem icon on the tooltray to restore the main screen, then
click the button when labeled “Disconnect”.
