Note for Windows 95, 98, ME, and XP users: When creating your Bee.Net connection icon with dial-up networking, you need only input the Bee.Net access phone number and ensure that the modem type selected by the installation program is appropriate. The default values assigned by Microsoft dial-up networking are sufficient for your computer to connect to the Internet, as our system assigns your IP address and DNS servers each time you connect.
