Setting Up the New TCP/IP Configuration

1. In the

TCP/IP (“your configuration name”) dialog, under “Connect via:”

select “PPP.”

Globalstar data service uses Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) to carry data

packets from your computer to the Globalstar Gateway.

2. In the “Configure” list, select “Using PPP Server.”

3. In most cases you should allow the server to set addresses and masks.

Contact your SP or Internet Service Provider (ISP) to find out what

information is required.

4. In the “Name server addr.:” field, enter one or more DNS addresses if

supplied by your ISP. These addresses are often supplied automatically

by the PPP server, in which case this field can be left blank.

Note

Name server address numbers in the illustration are examples

only. Ask your Service Provider or ISP for the numbers you

should enter.

5. In the “Search domains” field, enter the domain name assigned by your

SP or ISP or any other domain names you would like appended to

incomplete host names when searching. This field can be left blank if

you will only be entering complete (fully qualified) host names in your

applications.

6. Close the

TCP/IP (“your configuration name”) dialog, answering “Yes”

when asked if you want to save your changes.

7. Close

Remote Access, answering “Yes” when asked if you want to save

your changes.
