Connecting to the Internet

If You Don’t Have a Username or Password:

If your DSL service provider instructed you that you do not need a Username or Password, skip the steps below. To connect to the Internet, simply double-click your desktop’s Web browser icon.

1	Now that you have installed the hardware—and your
	computer is on—the modem’s front panel PWR light is lit.
	The LINK light flashes while the modem is establishing a
	connection; it remains constantly on once it has connected
	successfully. When the light remains constantly on (this may
	take several minutes), you are ready to log on to the Internet.
	(There is a third LED, DATA, which blinks when the
	modem is transferring or receiving data.)
2	Notice that there is now a Zoom PPP DSL icon on your
	computer desktop.

• Double-click the PPP DSL icon.

• Enter the Username and Password that your service provider has given you and click Dial or Connect.

Your Username and Password will be verified and your modem will be registered on the service provider’s network.

You are now connected to the Internet! To verify that you’re successfully connected, click the DSL icon that resides in your system tray.

You can start or stop your DSL connection by clicking the Start or Stop button, respectively.
