3.2 Accessing the Network Through the PPP Dial-Up Software on the Computer If you select this method for accessing the network, you need to install and configure the dial-up software on the computer. In addition, you need to perform the dial-up operations on the computer each time after the startup of the computer. To configure the MT883 and the computer for the network access, do as follows: Step 1 Set the working mode of the MT883 to Bridge. For details, refer to the procedure for enabling the embedded dial-up function described in Step 2 in section 3.1 "Accessing the Network Through the Embedded PPP Dial-Up Software of the MT883." Select Bridge from the Mode drop-down combo box. Step 2 Install and configure the PPP dial-up software on the computer. The PPP dial-up software is preinstalled on certain computer operating systems. To create a dial-up connection, do as follows (taking the Windows XP operating system as an example): 1. Choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > Communications > Network Connections. 2. Click Create a new connection in Network Tasks to display the New Connection Wizard window, and then click Next. 3. Select Connect to the Internet, and then click Next. 4. Select Set up my connection manually, and then click Next. 5. Select Connect using a broadband connection that requires a user name and password, and then click Next. 6. Enter the name (as desired) of the dial-up connection in ISP Name, and then click Next. 7. Select Anyone's use or My use only, and then click Next. 8. Enter the user name and password provided by the operator and used for the dial-up connection, and then click Next. 9. Select Add a shortcut to this connection to my desktop, and then click Finish.
