Dialup Settings
If you are going to use a dialup ISP to connect your FireBall to the Internet, you must provide information for your selected ISP. This information can be obtained by contacting your ISP or from your PC, if you already use it to connect to the Internet.
Connect you phone line to a Hayes compatible modem and connect the modem to
COM PORT 4 on the back of your FireBall, then follow these steps to specify your
Dialup Modem settings:
1.Press the SETUP key on the remote to display the Setup menu.
2.Select the Network Menu
3.Select the Dialup Settings Menu
4.Enter your login or user name.
5.Enter your password.
6.Enter 1 or 2 dialup access numbers obtained from your ISP.
7.Select your dialing method: Tone or Pulse.
8.Enter any required dialing prefixes you may need for your phone system such as ‘9’ to get an outside line.
9.If you have Call Waiting service on your phone line, you should enter “*70,” (or any other code) to temporarily disable it while using FireBall. This prevents a Call Waiting call from interrupting any FireBall Internet functions that may be in progress, such as updating.
10.Finally select which Provider you are using: AOL, CompuServe or Other.
If you want to test the dialup modem connection, select the TEST CONNECTION button to run the test as described above.
