Windows Dial-up Networking (DUN)

Dial-up Networking (DUN) allows a computer or other device to use the serial port on your Raven X to connect to the Internet or private network using PPP just like an analog modem using a stan- dard phone line.

Note: The Setup Wizard is the preferred method to install a modem driver and con- figure PPP for your modem. Use the instructions here only if you do not have the Setup Wizard available.

Using the Setup Wizard, if do not need to activate your modem, you can select just Setup a DUN Connection from the opening menu to install the driver and set up DUN. Follow the instructions in the Quick Start Guide to install DUN with the Setup Wizard.

Microsoft Windows XP is used in the examples below. The modem driver installation and DUN setup and configuration is similar in Microsoft Windows products. Examples are not provided here for installing the driver or configuring DUN for any other operating system.

Caution: To install any driver on your computer, you may need to be logged in as Administrator or have Administrator privileges for your login.
