- I. System Setup for Windows 95
-
- Windows 95 needs to be setup in the correct order
- to function properly. If Dial-up Networking is
- installed before the Dial-up Adapter, a corrupt
- Dial-up Adapter installation can sometimes arise.
- Use the following steps to correctly configure
- the Windows 95 communication functions.
-
- --------------------------------------------------
- N.B. If your computer is connected to any other
- internal or external networks please consult your
- system administrator before proceeding.
- --------------------------------------------------
-
- Step 1:
- Please ensure that your modem is installed and
- configured within Control Panel and that you
- have your Windows 95 set-up disks or CD-Rom
- for this proceedure.
-
- Step 2:
- The Dial-up Adapter must be installed. Click on
- Start-Settings-Control Panel. Double-click Network.
- If Dial-up Adapter is visible in the window, click it
- once, then click Remove. If Dial-up adapter is not
- visible proceed to step 3.
-

- Manufacturers select Microsoft and from the list of Network
- Protocols: select TCP/IP. Click OK.
-
- Step 5:
- Highlight the Dial-up Adapter, then click on Properties.
- Select the Bindings tab. Ensure that TCP/IP is ticked.
- If not, enable it by clicking the check box. If there
- are any other entries in this window with ticks against
- them, disable them by clicking the check box to remove
- the tick. Only TCP/IP should have a tick against it.
- Click OK.
-
- Step 6:
- Select the Identification tab. Ensure the word 'Default'
- is within the entry for Computer name, and the word
- 'WORKGROUP' is within the entry for Workgroup. Click OK.
- You may be prompted for your Windows 95 disks or CD-Rom.
- Select Yes to restart the computer.
-
- Step 7:
- If Windows 95 prompts for a User Name and Password during
- the reboot process; Enter the word 'global' in the entry
- for User Name but leave the Password entry EMPTY. Click OK.
- Again, leave both entries for confirmation of Password
- EMPTY. Click OK.
-
- If no prompts appear proceed to step 8.
-
- (The above step will ensure you are
- not prompted for a password in future.)
-
- Step 8:
- Once the computer has rebooted, Dial-up Networking
- must be installed. Click on Start-Settings-Control Panel.

- II. Advanced Settings for Windows 3.1

- allows you to configure your modem. Our default settings for
- COM port, baud rate, initialisation string, and dial string
