23. Select OK.
Now you may test the PPP connection you have created if you wish.
Otherwise you will be configuring Wireless ACE to startup your PPP
connection automatically, later in the manual.
1. Double-click on the "CDPD Modem PPP" icon in the Dial-Up
Networking window.
2. You should see a "Connect To" dialog box. Verify the following
settings:
User name and Password are blank.
Phone number = PPP (note that three P's appear here even
though four were entered earlier. That is normal with Windows
Millennium Edition.)
3. Select Connect. You should see a "Connecting to CDPD Modem PPP"
dialog box.
Windows will establish a PPP session with the modem. When it succeeds,
it will display the Dial Up Networking icon on the right of the Windows
task bar (the two small computers)at the bottom of the screen.
Double-click on this icon for connection status information.
Hovering over it (moving the mouse there but not clicking) causes
Windows to display reports on the number of bytes sent and received.
If you fail to establish a connection, review your settings starting with the
Configuring the Modem
section. A list of error messages and quick
solutions are listed in the Troubleshooting
section.
Proceed to the next section on Wireless ACE to setup your modem with it’s IP
address and Side Preference so you can begin using it.
