Do I have to use
FamilyWay's
Dialer to Connect
to the Internet?

NO,
But we think it's easier!

 "We would prefer that you use our dialer because it configures your account information with the network automatically and springs you to our Start page, where we provide user help, news and links. It also helps avoid other set up problems with using your computer's default dialer."

To set up your computer's default dialer, simply run your Internet Setup or Dial up wizard program on your computer, or go to Dial-up Networking and run Make New Connection. In (Settings) or (Control Panel) or (MyComputer) you will find Dial-up Networking. Whatever Networking connection method is used on your computer, just run though it and enter the following information for your dialer and email program;

  • Accountname : yourusername@familyway.net
  • User Name : yourusername@logon-o.net         Letter "O" not zero.
  • Password: yourpassword
  • Dial-up Number: get this from our main web site or call us.
  • Type of Dial up Server: PPP
  • Network Protocols Allowed: TCP/IP "server assigned IP address"

    Mail settings:

  • Incoming Mail Server : mail.familyway.net
  • Outgoing Mail Server : smtp.familyway.net


    To avoid dial-up errors, you should delete any other previous dial-up accounts on your computer and use your FamilyWay dial-up account as the default.
