D-basics can use a dial–up connection to connect to computers that are in a different computer network. These connections can be used in two ways:

 

Sending information using e-mail

In case export files must be send by e-mail, a dial-up connection can be used to connect to the mail server of an Internet provider.

 

Retrieving information from accounting software

In case the database of an accounting program is situated on a computer that cannot be reached through a computer network, a dial-up connection can be used to establish this connection. The window 'Network connections' shows a list of available network connections.

This window also offers the possibility to Add, Change or Delete a network connection.

Add

Push the button 'Add' to create a new network connection. This opens the window 'Network connection' that can be used to enter the settings of the new network connection.

 

Change

To change the settings of a network connection, select a network connection entry and push the button 'Change'

 

Delete

To delete a network connection, select a network connection entry and push the button 'Delete'.

 

Remark:

Obtaining information through a dial-up connection is an advanced feature that should only be used in case it is not possible to connect through a 'normal' computer network.
