If there is only one ISP, I
recommend you use it as the ppp0 provider name.
Login Name??”The login name assigned to you by the ISP. The ISP may have called
the login name a login ID or something similar.
Password??”The password associated with the login name.
5. Click Forward, and the IP Settings window appears. With a dial-up connection, you
would typically select Automatically Obtain IP Address Settings. However, if the ISP has
assigned a static IP address that you can use, select the Statically Set IP Addresses check
box, and then enter your IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address in the
appropriate fields. Click Forward to continue.
6. The Create Dialup Connection window appears, displaying the information you just
entered. If all the information looks correct, click Apply (otherwise, click the Back button,
correct your information, and click Forward again to return to this window).
7. After you click Apply, the Network Configuration window appears, ideally with a new
PPP connection of modem type appearing in the window. (If it doesn??™t appear, select
System Settings???Network.)
8. Select the new dial-up entry (so it is highlighted), and choose File???Save to save its new
configuration.
Now select the PPP device name and click the Activate button.
