The connection settings window will now come up. Go ahead and type in your username and password. If you would like your connection to be optimized and more secure, click Properties and read on. If you don't care to have your connection firewalled, you may click OK and skip to step 9. We will now enable the Internet Connection Firewall. This will significantly help prevent future viruses such as the Blaster worm and other unwanted Internet traffic from initiating connections to your computer.
Simply click on the check box, and then click on the OK button. We will now adjust the computer's dialing behavior. Ensure you close all applications before starting. Please have a copy of the original Windows XP installation software handy as it may be required by Windows during the setup process. From the Windows XP desktop, click on the Start button in the bottom left hand corner. From the Start menu, click on the Control Panel icon. Select the Modems tab.
If your modem is listed then go back to the Control Panel and select Network and Internet Connections as Windows has detected your modem. At the end of this process you should see that your modem has been successfully detected, if not then consult your modem manual or manufacturer. From the Start menu, click on the "Control Panel" icon.
Select "Network and Internet Connections". We can not use Callback with MultiLink. We will go to the Control Panel, and open Network Connections.
The following wizard appears. We will leave the default options checked. Using MultiLink, two or more physical modems are used simultaneously to establish a single logical connection. We can configure a single connection to use MultiLink with the bandwidth allocation protocol to dynamically dial and drop connections. To create a MultiLink, first we have to install two or more modems.
Next, we have to create a dial-up connection that uses both modems. By default, our connection will use both modems, but we could dial only the first available device, if we want to. We can dial devices only as needed. We can also communicate with other computers using a Direct Connection.
A Direct Connection uses a direct link between the two devices, such as a cable attached to the serial or parallel port, or communication through infrared device. We can connect directly to another computer using, for example, a direct parallel link, or we can configure an incoming connection so other users can connect to our computer.
On the next window we have to enter the name of the connection. To connect to another computer using a direct connection, we have to provide a user name and a password. On the other hand, if we want to allow others to access data on our computer, we can create an Incoming Connection.
If we configure our computer as a Host, we have to select which users can connect to our computer. Notice that this way we can use only one device that will accept incoming connections. This way we can select multiple devices that will accept incoming connections.
Again, we have to select user which will be able to connect to our computer. Next, we need to select the LAN protocols and services that are used for the connection. We have to verify that the protocols we need are in the list. When configuring Dial-up connection, we have to have a dial-up modem installed.
We also have to have valid user credentials in order to dial in to remote server. When using MultiLink, two or more physical modems are used simultaneously to establish a single logical connection. We can create direct connections which can be used to access other computers or to allow access to our own computer using, for example, Serial, Parallel or Infrared port.
