Connecting to AU Dial

How to do it:

  1. Double click on the AU Dial icon on your desktop and the following window will appear:

    AU Dial

    Note: For connecting out of town, the phone number should be 9 1 877 534 9981. If you are not in a location that requires you to dial 9 first, you'll need to delete the 9 from the number. If a pause is required between numbers, insert one or more commas (the more commas, the longer the pause) where needed.
  2. Enter your AU user name and password, as supplied by your Administrative Computing Coordinator, and click Connect.
  3. A smaller window will indicate what is happening ("dialing" then "verifying user name and password"). When this window disappears, you are connected to the Internet and can open a web browser or check your e-mail.
  4. An icon similar to the one below will appear in the Notification Area of your Windows Taskbar, indicating that your connection is active.
