Choose Connect to the internet, Set up my connection manually, Connect using a dial up
modem, in ISP Name add ‘Telstra mobile’, in Phone number you must add *99#, username
and password should be blank, default connection can be unchecked and Shortcut to
Desktop can be checked.
Make sure Join Me is installed, the drivers are functioning, the handset is connected to the
PC using the USB lead supplied.
Double click the Telstra Mobile icon on your desktop and press Connect.
You can now browse the internet normally using the handset as your Dial Up Modem
