How Do I Set Up a Networking Configuration?
Before setting up a networking configuration, copy modem script files to
your Macintosh from the QUALCOMM Globalstar Packet Data Kit (you
need to do this only once). See “Copying Modem Script Files to Your
Macintosh”.
Then, for each networking configuration you wish to set up, follow the
sequence of steps under “Creating a Networking Configuration”.
Copying Modem Script Files to Your Macintosh
1. Locate the CD included in the QUALCOMM Globalstar Packet Data
Kit, then insert it into the CD-ROM drive of your Macintosh.
2. Using the Finder, locate the “drag into Modem Scripts” folder on the
CD, and copy all the files in it to:
System Folder > Extensions > Modem
Scripts
.
These files contain scripts with modem settings for Globalstar data
service. One is a basic script that uses the mode preferences set on your
Tri-Mode Phone. Others, included for your convenience, can force your
Tri-Mode Phone to make data connections using Globalstar or cellular
modes only.
Creating a Networking Configuration
Creating a networking configuration consists of the following sequence:
■ Create and set up a new Remote Access configuration, including setting
up the protocol
■ Create and set up a new Modem configuration
■ Create and set up a new TCP/IP configuration
To use Globalstar packet data service with a single SP, follow this sequence
once. To set up additional networking configurations, repeat the sequence,
changing settings as appropriate.
Create separate networking configurations for packet data and
asynchronous data, if you want to use both types of connections for PPP
data.
Tip
If you create multiple networking configurations, you can use the Location
Manager that came with your MacOS to store and manage them.
