9. The Modem is now ready to begin the process that establishes a connection to the Internet. This is
known as the "negotiation" process since the Modem must first contact other computers on the network
to verify your account information and negotiate the connection. Click on the Connect button to begin
the negotiation. It will take a few seconds for verification and connection processes to be completed.
Notice that the Connection Status field displays a message informing you that the Modem is now
"Connecting..."; when the connection is established, this field displays the message "Connected".
When you see this message, you are connected to the Internet.

Changing the Connection Type

By default, the Modem is configured to use the PPPoE connection method for the connection to the Internet. If
your ADSL service uses PPPoA, IPoA or "RFC 1483 Bridge" connection types you must first change the
connection type and restart the Modem before you can establish a connection. Follow the instruction below for
the type of connection you want to use.
At the top of the Account Configuration menu you will see a pull-down menu labeled Connection Type. Use
this to select the connection type used for your ADSL service.
