Congratulations!
You are installed in PPP Mode. PPP stands for Point-to-Point Protocol.
You have successfully installed your 3Com HomeConnect ADSL Modem Dual
Link.
The Dual Link provides a flexible mechanism
to link multiple computers to each other and to the Internet.

Your modem has the ability to support several ADSL service modes. Your
modem has been installed to support the PPP mode. In the PPP mode
you connect to the Internet by using the Broadband Dialer application
supplied (by 3Com) with your modem. While you can only connect one PC at a time to a specific Internet connection, if you obtain and install multiple internet connections,
you can access different ISPs on other PCs attached to the modem.
First, you will need to set up the 3Com Broadband Dialer in order to
complete your install process. To do this, from the Start button, click:
You will then enter the information provided by your Service Provider.
Once you have completed the installation of the
Dual Link software on this PC, you may want to set up
additional PCs.
At some point you may need to have more than one
ISP. You can add ISPs using information provided
by your service provider.
The modem installation procedure you have completed installed a program
group on your hard drive. This program group
provides shortcuts to:
- Access the modem for diagnostics, monitoring
your connection and upgrading your modem software. For the most part,
you should not have to directly access your modem.
- View this online guide.
- Install the Instant Update package which
allows you to automatically obtain software updates for your modem over
the Internet.
- Uninstall the modem program group from
your hard drive.
You can learn more about unfamiliar or technical terms by consulting
