This chapter explains how to configure your Courier V.Everything for use
with Macintosh computers.
Note: There are many ways to configure your Macintosh to use the
Internet. Consult your Macintosh documentation for more information.
Handshaking Cable
Use a hardware handshaking cable to connect your Courier V.Everything
to the Macintosh.
System Configuration
Also, if you aren't using AppleTalk® Remote Access (ARA), set
AppleTalk to Inactive (in Chooser).
Important: Your Macintosh Courier V.Everything DIP switches should
have been set to 3, 5, and 8 ON. To use the Courier V.Everything with
your Macintosh you must also set DIP switch 1 to ON.
The modem initialization string should be AT&F1&D0.
For instructions about how to set up your Macintosh communications
software package, consult your Macintosh documentation or visit the U.S.

Accessing the Internet
Accessing the Internet through an ISP requires the following software:
•
MacTCP or Open Transport (TCP/IP from the Control Panels menu),
which has probably already been installed on your Macintosh
•
SLIP or PPP dialing software
Note: You can find public domain PPP dialers (such as MacPPP and
FreePPP) on the Internet.
