ARENA / RANGER USER GUIDE

Dial-up connections are typically used to connect to an ISP (internet service
provider) when the mail server is not reachable via LAN.
NOTES:
– Yahoo cannot be used as ISP because there are issues on the provider
side concerning external email access. Use an alternative ISP.
– ARENA shows all dial-up connections on your PC here, except the ones
used to connect to remote sites. ARENA will also allow creating new
Dial-up connections to ISPs, which is the recommended way for alarm
forwarding. You can choose an existing dial-up connection to an ISP.
ATTENTION!
When selecting an existing dial-up connection, make sure that the modem
connection is set up in a way that it does not attempt to retry after the phone
line drops, because this conflicts with the retry attempts of ARENA. You can
check this by selecting Connect to / Show all connections from the Windows
Start menu. Then open the properties of the connection.
e. Continue with step 110.
