1-2 Courier V.Everything External Modem: Getting Started
Calling Online Services
Each online service, such as America Online or CompuServe,
provides its own customized communications software package.
A couple of these packages are included with the Courier. These
packages do the dialing and guide you through the steps of
registration.
Accessing Corporate Networks Remotely
Dialing in to a remote network requires remote access software.
When you dial in to a network, the software makes your remote
computer appear to the network as locally attached. You can
then use your network just as you would if you were there: send
mail, print files, and access LAN drives.
A remote access package is included with the Courier.
Calling Bulletin Board Systems (BBSs)
Calling a BBS requires communications software that does
terminal emulation. The software should also support common,
standard file transfer protocols, such as YMODEM and
ZMODEM.
A communications software package is included with the
Courier.
Sending Facsimiles or Files
Most communications software packages support file transfers
and many support fax operations. You can use fax-capable
software to call fax machines or other fax modems and send
facsimiles.
