Open Microsoft Dial-up Networking.
(Located under "My Computer" )

Note : Earlier versions of Windows 95 did not come with Dial-up Networking pre-installed. If you do not see Dial-up Networking, you will need to install it onto your computer.

Double-click Make New Connection.

Note : If Dial-up Networking has never been used on your PC, you will automatically be presented with the option starting on number 3 below.

Replace My Connection with the word BAMnet, click Next to continue.

Note: You do not need to select a device (or modem) as the one pre-selected usually is the one to use. There is no reason to click on Configure as we do all the configuring for you.

Insert Area code and Number, click Next to continue.

Visit our Dial-Up Number page and choose your desired dialup number. Enter the number in the space as shown above. Click Next to continue.

Notes: If dialing our U.S. 1-800 number, enter 800 as the area code, then 737-7530 as the telephone number. If dialing one of our non-800 style numbers (see list), use the calling format that works for the area you are in. For example, if no area code is required when dialing, you might only need XXX-XXXX as the number to dial. Each country/state have their own calling formats. For more information on calling patterns including access from Hotels, visit our Helpful Tips section in the upper right corner of this page.
 

Select Finish to complete the process. You should now see a BAMnet Icon.

Note: When you click the new icon, add "@bamnet" to the end of your user name. For example username@bamnet. Important: do not add ".com" to the end of @bamnet - this will not work!

Before Connecting: Follow our simple Directions to configure the new icon which will enhance modem connection performance.

What do I do now? Now that you created the connection, test it by dialing into BAMnet. Upon a successful modem connection, open either Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape and start browsing the Internet. When finished browsing, please remember to disconnect from BAMnet.
