Dial‐up Networking (DUN) allows a computer or other device
to use the serial port or USB virtual serial port on your
PinPoint X to connect to the Internet or private network using
PPP just like an analog modem using a standard phone line.
Caution: To install any driver on your computer, you may need to be
logged in as Administrator or have Administrator privileges for your
login.
Microsoft Windows XP is used in the examples below. The
modem driver installation and DUN setup and configuration
is similar in Microsoft Windows products. Examples are not
provided here for installing the driver or configuring DUN for
any other operating system.
