Click the dot next to "For all users"
then click Next. If you are on a network or use profiles
and do not wish to allow access to your dial-up for other

Step 5
Erase the contents of the
text box (usually the box has My Connection in it already) and enter
in Pacific Online just as we have spelled it here. If you wish to
create a shortcut to this connection, click on the check box at the
bottom labeled "Add a shortcut to my desktop". This will
make an icon on your desktop so that you need only double-click on
that icon to get online.
Click on Finish to complete the setup of Pacific Online.
Please keep in mind that these instructions do not
setup your email program; you will need to go back to our
main Support
page, find the email program you wish to use in the list,
and run through those instructions to setup your Pacific
Online email.
As always, if you have any problems with these
instructions or if you have any questions you can always contact
us.
