Manually Configuring Windows 2000
Tip
Your packet data kit CD contains a Quick Start Wizard, which
can help you configure your computer to use a Tri-Mode Phone as
a wireless modem. It can also set up a Dial-Up Networking
connection for you. If you use the kit’s wizard, you do not
have to read this section. For details, see “Quick Start
Installation” on page 14.
This section applies only to Windows 2000. It shows how to manually
configure a “modem” driver and Dial-Up Networking connection. You need
to do this if you want to make:
■ Packet data connections (for example: browse the Internet)
■ Asynchronous connections that access packet data (for example: dial
into a modem behind a firewall, then access a corporate intranet).
The following table shows a quick overview of the process in each case.
Note
If you are using another version of Windows, do not use the
procedures in this section. Instead, go to “Manually Configuring
Windows 95, 98, and NT” on page 14.
