Under Windows XP and Windows2000, skyDSL can be used with an AOL 9.0 Internet connection without having to changeconfiguration if under skyDSL Settings/Routing the default option “collectall data via skyDSL” is active.Surfing and downloading have to be done using MS Internet Explorer or any otherbrowser. The integrated browser provided by AOL cannot be used! If you do notwant to use the option “Collect all data via skyDSL”, or if youcannot use it under Windows 98SE and Windows ME, you have to use the skyDSLproxy (127.0.0.1) (option “Only collectdata via skyDSL … “). Please create a new connection using the AOL accessdata (username and dial-in number). In the skyDSL Settings dialog, select thenew AOL connection you just created. When using the AOL software (AOL browser …) forsurfing and downloading, all data will be exchanged via the terrestrialconnection. It is not possible to force the AOL software to use the skyDSL connection.
