Below is a list of all the serial ports that appear to have hardware that can be used for ppp. One that seems to have a modem on it has been preselected. If no modem was found 'Manual' was preselected. To accept the preselection just hit TAB and then ENTER. Use the up and down arrow keys to move among the selections, and press the spacebar to select one. When you are finished, use TAB to select <OK> and ENTER to move on to the next item.

/dev/ttyS0 is COM1 in DOS.
/dev/ttyS1 is COM2 in DOS.
/dev/ttyS2 is COM3 in DOS.
/dev/ttyS3 is COM4 in DOS.
/dev/ttyS1 is the most common. Note that this must be typed exactly as shown. Capitalization is important: ttyS1 is not the same as ttys1. |

Enabling default routing tells your system that the way to reach hosts to which it is not directly connected is via your ISP. This is almost certainly what you want. Use the up and down arrow keys to move among the selections, and press the spacebar to select one. When you are finished, use TAB to select <OK> and ENTER to move on to the next item.

You almost certainly do not want to change this from the default value of noipdefault. This not the place for your nameserver ip numbers. It is the place for your ip number if and only if your ISP has assigned you a static one. If you have been given only a local static ip, enter it with a colon at the end, like this: 192.168.1.2: If you have been given both a local and a remote ip, enter the local ip, a colon, and the remote ip, like this: 192.168.1.2:10.203.1.2

Enter modem initialization string. The default value is ATZ, which tells the modem to use it's default settings. As most modems are shipped from the factory with default settings that are appropriate for ppp, I suggest you not change this.

Select method of dialing. Since almost everyone has touch-tone, you should leave the dialing method set to tone unless you are sure you need pulse. Use the up and down arrow keys to move among the selections, and press the spacebar to select one. When you are finished, use TAB to select <OK> and ENTER to move on to the next item.

Enter the name you wish to use to refer to this isp. You will probably want to give the default name of 'provider' to your primary isp. That way, you can dial it by just giving the command 'pon'. Give each additional isp a unique name. For example, you might call your employer 'theoffice' and your university 'theschool'. Then you can connect to your isp with 'pon', your office with 'pon theoffice', and your university with 'pon theschool'. Note: the name must contain no spaces.
