Client configuration to access the Internet

We strongly recommend that you use the Magnia SG20
"Client Setup- and Documentation CD" to configure your
local client computers. If you do this, your client computers
will automatically be configured to use the Magnia SG20 as
their gateway to the Internet. No further configuration
changes should be necessary.

If you choose to configure your client computers manually to
access the Magnia SG20 (without the "Client Setup- and
Documentation CD"), see

“Manually Configuring Clients for

the Magnia SG20” on page 261

for complete instructions.

use in both these ways, the modem or ISDN adapter cannot
handle both incoming and outgoing connections at the same
time. Configuring the modem or ISDN adapter for outgoing
Internet connectivity can keep it busy for significant periods.

Please note that the features described below may not appear
on your Administration Web site if you have not configured
an Internet connection using the modem respectively using
ISDN.

Viewing modem or ISDN status

Checking modem or ISDN status can help you to identify
why it is currently in use, or to troubleshoot problems
connecting to ISPs. You can see what the modem or ISDN
adapter is currently doing in several ways.

The quickest way to view the current status is on the LCD
screen. To make sure modem or ISDN modem messages have
been turned on for the LCD:
