Windows Vista Dial-up Configuration

Windows Vista dial-up configuration for ASAHI Net access points.

I. Before making the configuration, ensure that...

1. Your ASAHI Net Course/Plan supports connection to the access point.
If using a Dial-up Course K Plan, for example, connection is not possible to the All-Japan Access Point; instead connect to the Prime Access Point. Also be aware that the Plan you are using incorporates a base total number of dial-up hours per month; connections in excess of the base total will be charged at an excess usage rate - please refer to our Web pages for details or contact ASAHI Net before making a dial-up connection.

2. You are prepared for connection.
You will need a dial-up device to make a dial-up connection. Typically this will be an internal analog modem in your computer, or an external analog modem which you have connected to your computer. You will then connect your phone line to the modem and use the following configuration guide to configure your computer to make the connection.
