Start screen, select the "Test Connection" button. This will start the Dialup
Modem Test which will test the following network settings:
a. Phone line test will check that the modem is connected to a live phone line
which provides a dial tone.
b. The access number to the ISP using the first access number.
c. The connection to the ISP using the negotiated protocols of your particular
modem.
d. The login and password for the user's account.
e. The connection to the McIntosh servers.
If any of these tests fail, check your modem and phone line wiring with the proper test
equipment. Using the same modem and cables, test that you can access the internet using
a standard PC.
Static IP Addressing is not allowed with a dialup internet connection. Your ISP will
supply a dynamic IP address once the connection is established and the user's account
has been authenticated.
