Dial Setup – Windows Vista
The following are step-by-step instructions for configuring Dial-Up Networking in Windows Vista for use with Access US
- Open the Start Menu and select “Connect to.”
- Select the option to “Set up a connection or network.“.
- Select “Set up a dial-up connection” and click “next”
- Enter your local access number in the field labeled “Dial-up phone number.” Enter your accessus.net user name (full email address) in the box labeled “User name” and the password in the box labeled “Password” Once you have entered all that information, select the “Connect” button.
- Windows will now attempt to use your new dialup connection before saving your work. If you would like to interrupt this process and save, click the button labeled “Skip” below.
- If you skipped the initial connection attempt, or your attempt to connect otherwise failed, you will be presented with three options:
Try Again. This will simply instruct your computer to re-try the connection. Diagnose the problem. If you did not intentionally interrupt the connection attempt, this may be a good option. Dialup diagnostics are beyond the scope of this document. Set up the connection anyway. If you intentionally skipped the test connection, this is probably the option you were intending to use.
