As the SpeedTouch™ web pages are controllable from any Operating System with
an installed web browser, the method to establish PPP sessions described below
can be used by any computer system.
Proceed as follows:
1
Open a web browser on your computer and browse to the SpeedTouch™ web
pages (see "3 SpeedTouch™ Web Interface" on page 41
information):
By default the SpeedTouch™ shows you the System Information page.
2
In the Basic menu, click Connections to open the Connections page that allows
you to establish dial in-in connections.
3
Click next to the connection entry you want to establish a connection with.
As a result the entry will be highlighted.
4
Enter your user name and password in the appropriate fields. If you want the
SpeedTouch™ to remember your credentials, select Save this password.
5
Click Connect.
As a result SpeedTouch™'s embedded PPP dial-in client establishes the Internet
connection.
During session-establishment the State column will display Trying. As soon as the
PPP session is started successfully the field displays up and your computers are
online.
You can open another web browser or continue with this one and surf the Internet.
