4 SpeedTouch™ Internet Connectivity

4.1.2 Using the SpeedTouch™ Web Pages

Introduction

Starting an Internet session

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:

1Open a web browser on your computer and browse to the SpeedTouch™ web pages (see “5 SpeedTouch™ Web Interface” on page 49 for more information):

By default the SpeedTouch™ shows you the System Information page.

2In the Basic menu, click Connections to open the Connections page that allows you to establish dial in-in connections.

3Click next to the connection entry you want to establish a connection with. As a result the entry will be highlighted.

4Enter your user name and password in the appropriate fields. If you want the SpeedTouch™ to remember your credentials, select Save this password.

5Click Connect.

As a result SpeedTouch™’s embedded PPP dial-in client establishes the Internet connec- tion.

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.
