Making Your First Connection

For this example, we will use the connection you created in the Hyper Terminal
program to dial the ZyXEL BBS. If you are using a different terminal program, run
the program according to the instructions provided with it.

Start the terminal program by double-clicking the Test Connection icon. When
the terminal window appears, enter the dial command with ZyXEL’s BBS as the
phone number.

Type:

ATDT17146930762<enter>

(Omit the ‘1714’ if you are in this area code)

The modem will go off-hook, dial the number, and after a few seconds of
negotiation tones, you should be connected to our BBS.

You will receive a login message asking for your name. For the purposes of this
example you need not continue. Just click the “disconnect” icon on the toolbar.
