Note:
When you click APPLY and TEST, the AIR-104/204 will immediately
attempt to place a call to your Internet Service Provider, using the modem you have
just identified. Watch the Message Window on the ICC browser screen for any
messages. If the connection is opened successfully, your LAN users should re-boot
their PCs, after which they may begin to access the Internet. If the connection is not
successful, the Message Window will provide you with information about the nature
of the problem.
After successful configuration, what next?
After the ISP account(s) specified by your configuration has been opened successfully, all
the users on your LAN may begin accessing the Internet immediately. However, each PC
that wishes to communicate with the Internet must be configured to obtain an IP address
from the AIR-104/204 automatically. The procedure to configure network PC’s is
described fully in Chapter 3.
Additionally, every time that the AIR-104/204 opens a new ISP connection, there is a
possibility that the DNS information provided by the ISP may have changed (for more
information, see the section entitled Advanced System Configuration in Chapter 5). If this
occurs, users on the LAN may need to reboot their computers in order to access the
Internet successfully.
