Configuring dial-up connection (Win 95/98)

The following is a step-by-step procedure for configuring your dial-up connection for internet access in Windows 95/98. Your screens may vary slightly depending on the operating system you are currently using.

You can also automatically configure your computer for your dial-up connection by logging into your personal home page, selecting the "account" button, choosing the service to configure, and clicking the "configure my PC for this account" button.

1. Go to your start menu and select Start > Settings > Control Panel.



2. From the control panel, double click the Internet Options Icon.



3. Select the Connections tab at the top of the window, and then select the add button to the right.



4. A wizard will start and ask you for some input. First give the connection a name. Type Eagles-Net.org in the field that says My Connection. Then, push the "Next" button.

5. Enter the dial-up access number you selected when you signed up for dial-up access, and then push the "Next" button.

6. When the next screen comes up, push the "Finish" button.

7. A new icon under dial-up settings is created with the name Eagles-Net.org. Highlight the icon, push the "set default" button to the lower right, and put a check next to always dial my default connection.

8. Push the "Settings" button on the right side (make sure the Eagles-Net.org icon is still highlighted). At the bottom of the new window, Enter in your dial-up username that was given to you when you signed up, and enter in your password.

9. Push the "OK" button and return to the Internet Properties window.

10. Select the General tab at the top of the Internet Properties window, and enter http://www.Eagles-Net.org into the address field under Home Page.

11. Push the "OK" button, and close the control panel window. You are now ready to connect to the internet with your Eagles-Net.org dial-up connection. Just double click the Internet Explorer icon from your desk top, or start any browser you would prefer to use. When prompted to, select the connect button to start the dialing process. Once your modem is connected, Internet Explorer will take you to the Eagles-Net.org home page.
