   0.  Introduction
   ================

   IBM's Internet Connection Phone enables real-time, full-duplex
   voice communication over TCP/IP networks, such as LAN or Internet.
   It is based on IBM's technology for real-time transfer of voice
   over data networks.


   =======================
   1.  System Requirements
   =======================

   a.  486 (100Mhz+ recommended) / Pentium PC running Windows 3.X or Windows95.
   b.  Mwave card with build 2.0 or higher.
   c.  A network connection through a token ring card to a LAN, or through
       a modem and SLIP/PPP to an Internet provider.
   d.  A microphone and speaker (or headphones) connected to the Mwave.



   =======================
   2.  Installing IC Phone
   =======================

   a.  For Windows 3.1 or WINOS2:
       - In Program Manager, select File then Run from the menu bar.
       - On the Command Line of the Run dialog box, enter:
            d:\install  (where 'd:' is the drive on which the IC Phone install
                        program is located)
       For Windows 95:
       - Select the Start task from the task bar, then select Run.
       - On the Run line, enter:
            d:\install  (where 'd:' is the drive on which the IC Phone install
                        program is located)
   b.  Follow the installation instructions.
   c.  Connect to your provider using the IAK or any other Internet access
       software.  For best results, you should connect with V.42 compression
       disabled (see note at the end of this document).  If you are using the
       Mwave card as the modem, you should set it to work in "14400" mode
       on IBM Thinkpad machines (without V.34).


   ======================
   3.  Operating IC Phone
   ======================

   a.  To activate the software, double click on the IC Phone icon.
   b.  From the main window, choose 'Setup', enter your email address
       and the IC Phone server's address, and click "OK".
   c.  Press the 'Call' button, and enter the email of the person you
       wish to call.  To see a list of all the users who are currently
       logged on, press the User List button.
   d.  When you finish the call, press the 'Hangup' button.

   Further information can be found in the on-line help.


   =========================
   4.  Uninstalling IC Phone
   =========================

   a.  To remove IC Phone, double-click the "IC Phone Uninstall" icon
       that was installed with the product.
   b.  To complete the removal of IC Phone, you need to run EPFIDEFI.BAT
       from the root directory of your boot drive.  This removes the IC Phone
       Uninstall program itself.


   ========================================================================

   Note about disabling V.42 compression

   To get better performance from IC Phone, you should disable the V.42
   compression of the modem.

   The following describes how to disable  V.42 compression for various
   system configurations :

   Windows95
   ---------
   1.  From the "My Computer" folder, open "Dial-up Networking".
   2.  Click the right mouse button on the "IBM Global Network" object,
       and select "Properties" from the popup menu.
   3.  In the Properties dialog box, press the "Configure" button.
   4.  In the Configure dialog box, choose the "Connection" tab.
   5.  Press the "Advanced..." button.
   6.  In the Advanced Connection Settings dialog box, uncheck the "compress
       data" checkbox.
   7.  Press "OK" on all the open dialog boxes.

   Windows3.1 + IAK
   ----------------

   To disable V.42 compression for an Mwave/IAK/Windows 3.1 system, do the
   following:
   1.  In IAK, highlight the entry for your connection, and press the 'Modify'
       button.  In the modem configuration page, change the first modem
       initialization string from 'AT&F' to 'AT*TH8'.  In the second
       initialization string, change '\N*' (where '*' is a number) to '\N0'
