Windows 2000 Definition of Dial-Up Connection


There are multiple paths to get to the Dial-Up Networking Window:


Via the Control-Panel
using the icon
Network and Dial-up
Connections

Via the Start-Menu
Settings“, then
Network and Dial-up
Connections

via your desktop icon
My Network Places“,
then the link to
Network and Dial-up
Connections
“.



As instructed , select to
“Make a New Connection”

This starts up the
“Network Connection Wizard”.
Continue with “Next”

 


This Wizard takes care about
all different kind of connections
(incoming and outgoing, via
modem or direct-cable-connection)

In this example, I like to
connect to the Internet,
selecting:
“Dial up to the Internet”


I am connecting via
Modem using a Phone-line

Step 1 of 3:
Internet access
connection information
The access number
(in this example for
CompuServe in Brussels)

Step 2 of 3 :
Internet account
logon information
The User-Identification
and Password, as assigned
by the Internet provider

Step 3 of 3 :
Configuring your
computer
Lets define a name
of the Connection
Screen :

Done !
Continue with “Finish”



However: most Internet connections require some additional configuration,
before you are able to make your first connection to the Internet.
