Connecting to a network using Dial-Up
You can connect to your ISP server or another PPP server on a remote network using Dial-Up. To connect to a server, you must configure a dial-up account. For more information on creating a dial-up account, see "Setting up a dial-up account." You must provide a login ID and password. Dial-Up displays a Connection window when it completes the dial-up process and connects to the server. The title of the Connection window is the same as the name of the dial-up account.
The throughput graph displays the amount and speed of data that flows from your connection. It also displays the IP address of the connection. You can view the throughput graph at any time during a dial-up connection.
You can view a log of the connections you have made. The Dial-Up log viewer displays the name and date, duration, and cost of the connection. You can view the current, previous or following month.
Note
If you have preset the dial-up account to store your password, you do not have to type it in. For information about storing a password, see "Setting dial options."
