4000/5000 Modems’ User Guide
Chapter 5:
LAN Setup
Dialup Networking
Some attached terminals do not have RJ45 Ethernet connectors and demand using a
DB9 RS232 standard serial connector for proper interface with the modem. The most
common use of this is in a PC environment and what is commonly referred to as dial-
up networking. A user must install a standard modem driver at the appropriate COM
port at which the modem is physically connected then create a dial-up connection
running on that driver. The dial-up connection dials #777 to reach to the modem so
that a PPP session is established between modem and PC. In the mean while, an
already established PPP session between modem and wireless network is underway.
There are 2 steps in setting up a PPP connection from your PC. They are described
here using Windows XP OS.
