************************************************
Connecting Your Dreambox Via A Windows Gateway
************************************************
These steps will:
1) modify a windows configuration f-i-l-e to allow Windows Remote Access Services (RAS) to detect incoming PPP connections
2) create a modem definition for the null modem connection
3) create an incoming connection definition for the PPP link
************************************************
1) Modify %SystemRoot%\inf\mdmhayes.inf
************************************************
These steps adds a line to a modem configuration f-i-l-e so that Windows can recognize an incoming PPP connection.
• Edit %SystemRoot%\inf\mdmhayes.inf - %SystemRoot% is c:\windows or c:\winnt
• Find the section [M2700Reg]
• Add the following line to the bottom of that section:
• HKR, Responses, "~", 1, 08, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00,00,00,00 ; Server side - the client is requesting a connection
• Save the f-i-l-e
• Reboot windows.
************************************************
2) Create The Null Modem
************************************************
• open Start | Settings | Control Panel | Phone And Modem Options | Modems
• select Add...
• check Don't detect my modem, I will select it from the list.
• select Next
• select (Standard Modem Types) from the left hand list box
• select Communications cable between two computers from the right hand list box
• select Next
• select the COM port to which the Dreambox will be attached
• select Next
• accept the warning (if any) regarding the digitally signed driver
• select Finish
• select the modem definition just created
• select Properties
• modify the Maximum Port Speed to 115200
• select OK
************************************************
3) Create The PPP Link
************************************************
• open Start | Settings | Control Panel | Network And Dialup Connections
• select f-i-l-e | New Connection... from the Control Panel's menu bar
• select Next
• select Accept incoming connections
• check Communications cable between two computers
• select Next
• check Do not allow virtual private connections
• select Next
• do not check any users
• select Next
• select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
• select Properties
• check Allow callers to access my local network
• check Specify TCP/IP addresses
• enter a range of IP addresses that comply with the guidelines specified in the Linux configuration instructions above
It is probably best if you choose a range that is 2 addresses wide, so that the end address is always allocated to the dreambox.
• select Next
• select Finish
If the connection was successful, you should see a line with the following columns in your "Network And Dialup Connections" folder:
<Unauthenticated user> | Direct | Connected.
The IP address assigned to the dreambox will be evident by selecting "Status | Details" from the connection's context menu and then looking at the value of the "Client IP address" line.
