5� secure Connections, VPns, and aol
Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and

are used where security is important� Secure connections include:

Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect

remotely to an office network

The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL),

which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another

cable or DSL service

Most online banking websites

Many commercial websites that require a user name and password

to access your account

Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power

management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep�” The simplest

solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by rerunning the VPN or

AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website�

A second alternative is to change your computer’s power management

settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate

for portable computers� To change your power management setting

under Windows, see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel�

If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and

AOL, please review the steps above to be sure you have addressed

these issues�
