Q

How do I check my Dial-Up Network settings?

A

 This will run you though the verification, and the setup of Dial-Up Networking.

Note: These instructions use our Concord access number.
If Concord is not a toll free call for you, please choose a closer number from our Dial Up Access list.
  1. To start, Double-click on "My Computer" on your desktop.

  2. Double-click on "Dial-Up Networking" in the new window.

  3. Two things may happen now. You should get a list of at least two icons, one labeled: Make New Connection and another labeled: Total Net NH. If you have both these icons in front of you, then click HERE to continue. Else, if you do not have an icon labeled: "Total Net NH", or a screen comes up asking you to type in a name, then you will need to setup a new icon.
  4. If you are at the Screen asking for: "A name of the computer you are dialing", then you are a step ahead, go to step 3. Else, Double click on: "Make New Connection"

  5. For the name of the connection type: Total Net NH. The Modem should be fine... Only change if you know what you are doing! Then click Next

  6. For the Area Code, type: "603". And then enter: "225-0038" for the Telephone Number. Now click next.

  7. It will tell you that you completed the setup... Just click finish!
  8. Now, that the connection is added. You will need to follow the steps below to configure it.
  1. To look at the settings of the connection, RIGHT-click on Total Net NH (That means use your RIGHT mouse button and click on the icon).
  2. When the new menu comes up, click on "Properties" (You can use your left mouse button to do so)
  3. You should now get a new window. You want to click on "Server Types". Once it is up compare the settings below with what you have and change them if necessary.

  4. Now click on the "TCP/IP Settings..." Button! (NOT The Check Mark Box).
  5. Now, compare your settings with the ones below. If your "Primary DNS, Secondary DNS, Primary WINS, and Secondary WINS boxes are "grayed out", click on: "Specify Name Server Addresses".

  6. Keep clicking "OK" until you get back to the Dial-Up Networking Window. Try connecting now and see if it works!
