network attachment available). If you select manual then the network available

How do I connect from a public hotspot?
Wi-Fi access points and Ethernet outlets in hotels and other public places often
require you to enter additional credentials (for example, a local user ID and password
or your credit card information) before granting network access. Since the OmniAccess
3500 NLG cannot know in advance the type of access negotiation implemented at
every such place, you will be required to interactively submit your local access
credentials.
To establish connectivity from a location that requires the submission of local-access
credentials, you must complete the following procedure within the time allowed by
your IT administrator (Default configured is five minutes):
1.
Select the desired interface (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) to make the connection.
2.
Select the Hotspot radio button and Click Authenticate and Connect button.
3.
A window will appear asking for the proxy information. Please leave this blank and
simply hit the OK button.
4.
Now an Internet Explorer window opens, displaying information about the visited
hotspot and asking you to enter the information required to access the public
network.
5.
After you enter the required information, the OmniAccess 3500 NLG can establish
a secure tunnel to your company's network through the public network.
Note: While establishing connection via hotspot if you get either "Action Cancelled" or
"The page cannot be displayed" window then try refreshing the browser page
