There are a bunch of steps that need to be followed exactly if you want your connection to work
properly. It might look intimidating but don't fret, it's really not that hard. All we ask is that you follow
the instructions EXACTLY. Do not add or subtract steps. If you think you messed up some where,
back off three or four steps and continue again. You can do it, so let's get started. (NOTE: Keep your
Windows 95 software handy, as the set up program might ask you to insert it along the way)

The Last Thing To Do
1) While in the "Dial-Up Networking" window, Double click the World Ramp icon. 2)
Enter your User name and Password. Check "Save password" (if you can) to
retain the password so you won't have to type it in again the next time you dial into World Ramp. 6) Click on the
"Connect" button. You should now hear the modem squeel as you dial into Wolrd Ramp.
That's it! You're done!
Note: You can create a Dial-Up Networking Short Cut by dragging the World Ramp icon to the
desktop.
