The steps for configuring your Prestige for Single User Internet Access
are identical to conventional Internet Access with the exception that you
need to fill in three extra fields.

Account feature. Use the space bar to toggle between Yes and No.

2. Single User Account: IP Addr - If your ISP assigns you a

static IP address enter that IP address here.

3. Single User Account: Server IP Addr - If you want to make a
