Step 3.
Open the "Network Connections" icon.




 

Step 4.
Click on "Create a new connection."

Step 5.
Click "Next."



Step 6.
Select the top option, "Connect to the Internet," and click "Next."
Step 7.
Select the middle option "Set up my connection manually" and click "Next."
Step 8.
Select "Connect using dial-up modem" and click "Next."

Step 10. Type in the telephone number 295 4015 and press NEXT.
(if you are not local to Berkeley, CA, please contact for additional dialup numbers))
 Step 11.
Enter your username and password. These were the two items you specified on your signup agreement. Our usernames are in the style "user@netwired.net"

You will need to enter your password twice for confirmation. We recommend switching ON the option for "Make this the default Internet connection". If other people with accounts on your computer will also be using this connection, you can turn on the option to allow them to use this same connection. We would advise NOT using the Internet Connection Firewall with a dial-up account, as it may interfere with your use of the Internet.
 


Step 12.
Click "Finish."
