You've got everything set up correctly at this point, so lets try logging on! Double-click on My Computer and you'll see an icon for Dial-Up Networking. Double-click that icon. A window will appear with a drop-down box that has all of your DUN connections listed (probably only one). Click the Dial button to start the logon process.

A window will appear as shown here:

 If during setup of your DUN connection you specified that a terminal window should be displayed for you to manually enter your userid and password, then what you enter here is completely unimportant. Just leave the fields as they are, and click OK. If your ISP uses an automatic PPP handshaking logon, then you'll need to fill in the "User Name" and "Password" fields with the correct information before clicking the OK button.

 Dial-Up Networking will then dial the number for your ISP. You'll see:

 If you set your DUN connection up to use a terminal window, then that window will now appear. You'll see the standard logon prompt for your ISP. Enter the required information for logging on, and you should see a string of 'garbage' characters appear on the screen. That signifies that PPP/SLIP has started - click the Done button and DUN will complete the connection.

 You can now use any of your Winsock-compliant software, such as a web browser, email programs, FTP software, etc.  You can now go ahead to After Connecting.
