Windows 98 Connection Wizard Setup

 

 

You can open the Internet Connection Wizard by going to the Start Menu, Programs, Internet Explorer and then click the Wizard icon.

This is the first screen that will pop up. Select "I have an existing Internet account through my phone line....." Click Next.

On the next screen, click the button for "Select this option if you are accessing the Internet using an Internet service provider or a local area network (LAN)." Click Next.

This is the next screen you will see. Select "Connect using my phone line". Click Next.

Type in the phone number 895-6650 If you need to dial the area code but not as a long distance call, make sure to uncheck "Dial using the area code and country code" and instead type the area code in the phone number box. Click Next.

Type in the user name and password that you chose with Omni Internet. Make sure that you type this in without any capital letters. Click Next.

On the next screen, select Yes to change the advanced settings. Click Next.

The connection type needs to be set to PPP. Click Next.

We do not need to type anything when logging on. Click Next.

Omni Internet automatically assigns you the IP address. Click Next.

Make sure that My Internet service provider automatically sets this when I sign in is selected. Click Next.

Name the connection Omni Internet. Click Next.

That's it! Click Finish.

You now have a connection setup. When you wish to connect, simply double-click Netscape or the Internet Explorer and windows 98 SHOULD automatically dial and make the connection for you.

 

If you wish you can make a shortcut of the connection to your desktop so you can manually dial in and disconnect. To do this, go into My Computer, double-click Dialup Networking. Right-click on the icon called Omni Internet and click create shortcut. Windows98 will ask you if you wish to place it on the Desktop. Click Yes. That's it!
