Wizard for Windows 95 |

The iPass Dial Wizard for
Windows 95 simplifies the process of setting up a dial-up
connection for a specific iPass access point. iPass has
imported all the iPass access numbers and set-up
information into the iPass Dial Wizard. With a few mouse
clicks, it will create a new connection for an Internet
user wishing to dial a local iPass access number. Users
must have Dial-up Networking installed in the My

Before you Roam |
Please find below three
points that you should check before you travel. |
|
1. |
Test
the software before roaming. |
|
|
Follow
the instructions for installing the iPass Dial
Wizard and test its operability before you begin
travelling. It is also recommended you install
alternative access numbers before you begin
roaming (this is a precautionary measure should
any of the access points you login to are
unavailable). |
|
2. |
Different
modems functioning worldwide. |
|
|
Many
countries have different telecommunications laws
and practices. Check with your modem supplier
that your modem will be compatible with the phone
systems of the country that you are travelling.
Many of the older modems are not compatible from
country to country. Make sure you have all
compatible electrical power adaptors needed for
the country where you are roaming. For some
comprehensive information about international
phone systems, please see:

|
3. |
Updating
your Dial Wizard. |
|
|
Before
you begin roaming, consult with Global Internet
to make sure you have the most recent release of
the iPass Dial Wizard. This will ensure you have
the most recent software release with the current
access numbers before you roam. iPass adds new
phone numbers regularly. |
