Getting Started with WinGate Home

i.  Configuring the WinGate Dialer Service

Before WinGate can share any existing dialup connections you must set these up in GateKeeper (System Service tab, Dialer).  Simply enter your username and passwords for each account, and select your primary and secondary connections.  These connections will then be available to dial on demand when required by WinGate (more on this in the help file).
