Text Instructions

- Type pon DCANet at your root shell prompt. This will only work if you chose DCANet for your provider name in Step 3.

- If you chose provider for your provider name in Step 3, type pon to connect. If you used anything other than DCANet or provider, type pon [whatever you chose for the provider name].

- The time it takes you to connect depends on multiple factors. To find out if you are connected, type ifconfig ppp0. If you are connected, ifconfig will show your IP.
