Creating a Dial-Up Networking (PPP)
Connection
Once you have the driver for the modem installed on your computer, you can set
up and configure Dial Up Networking (DUN) to use the modem as your
connection to the Internet using PPP.
Note: No other device or program can use the COM port (serial port) configured for the
modem driver while the DUN session is active.
Caution: If you have an existing LAN connection, installing DUN for the modem may
interfere with the LAN connection. We recommend disconnecting your LAN connection
before using a PPP connection with your AirLink device.
Once you have configured the DUN connection on your computer:
• The DUN connection may be set as the default connection for all network and
Internet communication.
• The computer may be configured to dial the DUN connection when it cannot
detect any network connection.
For instructions on changing these options, see Connection settings on page 285.
