If the client dialing into the LAN Modem is another LAN Modem, you must
configure a new service provider profile on the client LAN Modem which will dial
into the remote LAN Modem. You then use this service provider to place
automatic or manual calls to the server LAN Modem as needed.
When using a client LAN Modem to dial into another LAN Modem via the
Single-User dial-in scenario, you must manually change the IP address of the client
LAN Modem in order to distinguish between the two networks. Refer to
"Changing the IP address on the LAN Modem" for instructions.
Configure a service provider for this connection as follows.
Before You Begin
You will need the following information.
Telephone number of the server LAN Modem
User ID and password of the Dial-in user
IP address/subnet mask of the server LAN Modem
Additionally, if you would like to use the Callback feature, you will need the
following information:
Callback telephone number
Callback username and password
To set up a connection on a client LAN Modem to dial into a server LAN Modem,
do the following.
1 From the client LAN Modem's main page, click the Service Providers icon.
The Service Provider Selection screen opens.
2 Choose New (Private Network) from the drop-down menu and click Select.
The Private Network Parameters screen opens.
If you already have four Service Providers configured on your LAN Modem, one
must be deleted before a new Private Network can be created.
3 In the Name field, enter a name for this service provider, such as the location of
the server LAN Modem.

Modem.
