Operation Manual

Using VZAccess Manager 12

VZAccess Manager will display status information at the bottom during the connection process as well

as while connected. When not connected, the status text in the lower left corner will display "Not

connected" for the currently selected network. The timer will display "00:00:00". Once connected, the

status text will display "Connected" and the elapsed timer will begin to run. When a connection is

active, its name will appear as bold text.

The status is also reflected in the Task Tray icon.

A window will also slide out of the tray showing when you connect and

disconnect from networks.

The pop up status can be turned off, if desired, by selecting "Options", "Preferences", "Options" tab,

un-checking "Show popup status windows by tray". Right clicking on the tray icon provides various

options and double clicking on it will always show the application. Placing your cursor on it will display

the current connection status.

Based on your preferences, your browser or e-mail or VPN program can be launched automatically, or

you can launch whatever software you want to use. You can also determine if all connections show in

the drop down list or only your wireless ones, see Setting Your Preferences.

Note:

Always use VZAccess Manager when connecting via the NationalAccess - BroadbandAccess,

NationalAccess, or Quick 2 Net (14.4 kbps) connection. This will ensure that the Venturi compression

software is enabled and the wireless device is configured properly before connecting.

At any time during your connection you can check your current connection speed and throughput stats

in the Statistics tab of the Session Information window. To see this window, select "Statistics" from the

"Options" menu.
