3. Using the Service
Now that all three arrows are highlighted your Wired Ocean
connection is up & running and you can access the internet. Once
connected your session details are displayed at the bottom of the
diagram and the “CONNECT” button changes to “DISCONNECT”,
ready for when you want to terminate the connection.
You can now access the internet by opening another browser
window and email by opening your email client or by using web mail.
It is recommended that the browser page showing the S-Box User
Interface is kept open to allow you to monitor your internet session. If
you close the browser window that is displaying the S-Box User
Interface you will remain connected to the service until you reload the
same page and click “DISCONNECT” or the connection times-out in
accordance with the uplink timeout settings.
Some router-based uplink devices such as Fleet Broadband, 3G,
VSAT and Wi-Fi/WiMAX, may have their own connection
management interfaces. If you need to access the connection
management interface of one of these routers, first click “CONNECT”
on the S-Box from a connected computer. You will then be able to
access the connection management interface of the uplink router.
Use the connection management interface of the uplink router to set
the router to automatic connection. Once this is done, use the
“CONNECT” button on the S-Box User Interface to manage internet
connections.
If the S-Box does not connect please refer to Sections 5.2 to 5.4 of
this handbook.
3.3 Sending
and
Receiving
The S-Box supports email in the following three ways:
1. Via web mail access to an ISP’s mail servers. When the S-Box
is connected to the internet, access the ISP’s web site as you
would normally.
2. Using a POP/SMTP email client (such as Outlook or Outlook
Express) to connect through the internet to your email
provider. Once the S-Box is connected to the internet, open
and operate the email system as usual and incoming and
outgoing emails will pass transparently through the S-Box. If
