(If you are required to dial the area-code in your area but not a “1” then place the area-code in the phone number field along with the rest of the number.) If you are not sure what number to use click and contact Tech Support.
- Click OK.
- Now you can double-click on ‘Your Connection’ (whatever you named it) in this window and after having checked your username and password, click “Connect”
If the system is dialing the correct phone number and you still cannot connect:
- Try dialing the local access number manually on a telephone. If you get a busy signal (as opposed to modem noise) there may be some phone problems in the area or another similar issue. Try again in a few minutes and if you still do not have success you should us.
If you tried to dial manually and heard modem noises through the telephone:
- Ensure that the phone line you are connecting into the modem has a valid phone connection. (Remove it from the computer and plug it into a phone to check for a dial tone. Place it back in the jack that reads “Line” *not* “Phone”)
If this does not solve your problem please us.
