Connecting

Open 'Navigator' program group and double click on 'Shortcut to Green Apple' icon. Type in your login name and password (remember, both login name and password are case sensitive). You may put a checkmark in the 'Save password' box.

If this is your first time connecting, hit 'Dial Properties' button. If you have call waiting and Ameritech is your carrier, put a checkmark beside 'This location has call waiting' and in the box labeled 'To disable it, dial:', put '*70'.

If you have call waiting and Verizon (GTE) is your carrier, you will need to check with them to find out how you disable call waiting on single call basis (Verizon doesn't seem to have standardized on call waiting disablement feature in this area: some places will use '#70,', others cannot be disabled whatsoever).

On the line labeled 'The phone system at this location uses:', place a dot beside 'Tone dialing' if you have tone dialing feature; otherwise place a dot beside 'Pulse dialing' if you have pulse dialing feature. Hit the 'OK' button.

Hit 'Connect' button. This will dialup to Green Apple.

Once the modems connect, the message 'Verifying user name and password' will appear. If everything has been setup correctly and your login name and password have been entered correctly, the screen will turn into a status window with the connection speed and a time counter on it - your connection to the Internet is up and working! You may now minimize the status window and start one of your Internet applications such as Netscape Navigator.

If this is your first time running Netscape, you should register it. While connected to Green Apple, select Help >> Registration Information and provide the necessary details for registration.

When you are finished with your Internet session, close all your Internet applications, bring back the status window and hit 'Disconnect' button.

Note: Please read the booklet that comes with your Personal Edition. It contains much useful information and is the best starting point for using Netscape and beginning your Internet exploration.
