|  Step 4 Connecting to GDN 
        with the Mac
Open your Control 
        Panels folder, then double click on the ConfigPPP control panel. The most 
        recent version (2.2.0) looks like this:    Click the Open button 
        to begin your call. The following progress window appears.    You should see that 
        the modem is dialing, establishing communication, sending your password, 
        and finally that you have connected and the window will disappear. The 
        phrase PPP Down, at the top of the ConfigPPP window, will change to PPP 
        Up, and you will be connected. You may now select any PPP aplication and 
        begin your session.   Remember to click 
        the Hard Close button when you want to disconnect from the Internet.  
        TIP: Never 
        use Soft Close. Doing so may cause your computer to dial GDN at random 
        intervals whenever it chooses. This is known as phantom dialing.
