Creating Dial-Out Connections
You can create a dial-up connection for each phone number or GPRS service to which the SmartServer
is connected. The SmartServer contains two sample dial-out connections: Freenet and T-Online.
You can configure these connections by expanding the Dial-Out modem icon and then clicking them,
or you can create new dial-out connections. You can delete these sample connections if you do not
plan on using them.
To create a new dial-up connection, follow these steps:
1. In the navigation pane, right-click the Dial-Out modem icon and then click Add Connection on
the shortcut menu.
2. The Enter Name dialog opens. Enter a name for the connection and then click OK.
