How To Perform Registration
You are now ready to register your user information. Please note: You can complete the
registration process at a later time; however User Registration is not optional.
You must register in order to create a username and password, register your account and
payment information, and receive software and modem upgrades.
The registration process takes place on-line using an internet browser that must already be
installed on your computer. Typically, the browser might be Microsoft Internet Explorer or
Netscape Navigator.
The only requirements are that you have a default browser installation, and that your browser is
capable of accepting ‘cookies’. If you have disabled cookies, you need to enable them before
registration. If you wish, you may disable receipt of cookies after registration. See Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQs) in Appendix C for instructions on how to set cookie preferences on your
browser.
1. To Continue with Registration Now - Make sure that there is a checkbox is selected to
the left of Connect To The Internet and then click ‘Next >’.
2. The Wireless Broadband Modem Dialler application will then automatically start. The
application will communicate with the Wireless Broadband Modem and after a short
delay (23-30 seconds) it will attempt to establish a wireless internet connection. The
default Internet browser will be automatically launched and will automatically display
your Service Providers Customer Registration web page.
Note: If a connection cannot be made, the computer Client Software will timeout
and display a message indicating that the connection failed. If this happens, see
the Troubleshooting Tips in Appendix A.
3. To create a new account via your Service Providers Customer Registration web
page follow the on-screen instructions.
4. When you have created a new account, close the Internet Browser session (Click
the Windows close icon (x) in the upper right corner of the screen to close the
browser software).
5. Upon closing the Internet Browser session, the Wireless Broadband Modem
Dialler application will then automatically disconnect the wireless internet
connection. The Wireless Broadband Modem Dialler application will then attempt
to read the cookies returned from the Service Providers registration server to the
PC. There will be a short delay of about10 seconds, after which the Wireless
Broadband Modem Dialler application will indicate if the registration has been
successful before the application automatically closes.
6. Click Finish to exit the installation program.
7. You are now ready to connect to the Internet.
