Setting up Your Internet Access for Macintosh OS 9.X

Before you start this setup make sure that:
• You have your username and password
• The computer is connected to a phone line
• There are no other programs running

Step 1:

Open the Apple Menu, Choose Control Panel and then choose Remote Access.

Step 2:

Click the radio button for Registered User.

Type the user name, password, and phone number into the corresponding fields. If you want your password to be saved so that you do not have to enter it at each connection, select the checkbox for "Save password".

Your username is your primary email address (for example: yourusername@nantucket.net)
then your username is "yourusername."

Keep in mind that your username and password are all lowercase with no spaces.

There are three phone numbers to choose from
• 508-228-4317
• 508-325-8800
• 508-680-3050
Click Here for local numbers nationwide.

Click Options.


 


Step 3:

Click the Protocol tab.

Locate the checkbox for "Connect automatically when starting TCP/IP applications". If you want your computer to dial up automatically when necessary, select this box.

Click OK

Close the Remote Access window clicking Save when prompted.

 
Open a Web browser to check your connection to the Internet. If you selected "Automatically Connect" in Step 6, then your modem should dial up now.

If you can't connect, check your settings and try again.

If you connect but can't view webpages, check your DNS server address to make sure it matches the numbers we gave you.

If you continue to have trouble, contact us or check the FAQ page.
