Deutsche Telekom T-Eumex 504PC SE - Manual (Page 91)

83
When you open a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer or Netscape Communicator) or an e-
mail program on the PC connected to the Eumex 504PC SE, the PC will automatically
be connected to the Internet. This connection uses the built-in network card function
for fast Internet access (NDIS interface for Internet access without dial-up network).
Your Internet connection is retained for the length of the retention period set in the PC
Configurator, then automatically disconnected.
Note
Your system has a preset retention period of 180 seconds for an Internet connection.
If you often access the Internet for brief periods of time, e.g. to download e-mail, this
can lead to increased costs because the connection is retained for the preset length
of time. You can set the retention time according to your own requirements. For infor-
mation on checking and updating the access data in the system, please see p. 77.
Your system manages the B-channels dynamically when channel bundling is active. If
both B-channels are busy with data traffic and there is an incoming or outgoing tele-
phone call, one of the B-channels is made available for the call, after which it is
switched back to data traffic.
Alternative Internet access
As an alternative to Internet access using the access data entered in the PC Configu-
rator, you can create a dial-up network entry. For further details (e.g. channel
bundling), please refer to your operating system documentation.
In order to establish a connection, you double click on the corresponding dial-up net-
work entry or its shortcut, and enter the necessary data (user name, password and
number, if required).
You first connect to the Internet using dial-up networking, then start your browser. In
this case, the dial-up networking connection is used and the access data in the PC
Configurator ignored.
Note
When you start your browser for the first time, the Internet Connection Wizard opens.
Here you set the connection type to "LAN" and confirm with "OK." The Eumex 504PC
SE already has all the components necessary for Internet operation, and so no addi-
tional configuration under Windows is required.
