• In case you have no permanent internet connection: Prepare your auto-dial-settings internal or external. Set password-remembering in the Windows dialer … • Setup a bid with mybid=0.0 This is a dummy bid causing an error message ‘bid to small’ / ‘outbid’ • In order to make the test immediately without waiting to auction end time, modify the auction-end-time manually. e.g. 2 minutes in the future from now. Switch off automatic data update to prevent resetting the auction-end-time. • Ensure the global auto-bid-switch is on and the auction is ‘active’. • Watch whats going on … at pre-connect-time/auto-dial-time (-90s) the first connection to the server is made.
