Setting up the Mac to access FaithNoMore is straightforward.

From the 'Apple' menu select 'System Preferences'

This will open the window below. Select the "Network" Icon

This window should now appear.

In the 'show' box select your modem and then select the TCP/IP Tab. In the Configure box select 'Using PPP'

In the Domain Name Servers enter the numbers 80.225.252.178 and 80.225.249.186 EXACTLY. If you get these wrong then you will not be able to access the Web when connected.

Then select the PPP Taband enter 'Faithnomore' as the Service Provider name and the telephone numbers - 0845 665 1890 for dialup modems or 0845 665 1886 for ISDN connections.

Enter your username in the Account Name box (use guest@smartemail.co.uk with a password of guest if you haven't signed up yet) and enter your password. Check the box to Save Password.

REMEMBER that we use @smartEmail.co.uk and not @smartmail.co.uk so double check your spelling.

Now click 'PPP Options'

In this window check the boxes to connect automatically and to disconnect when user logs out. You can also set to redial when busy although it is almost certain that you will never get a busy signal with Faithnomore.

Check Send PP Echo packets and use TCP Header compression under Advanced Options.

Now click on the Tab labelled Proxies and make sure everything is deselected.

Now click on the Modem Tab

Select your Modem from the list and enable Error Correction, Sound and Tone Dialling. Also select Wait for Dial Tone before dialing.

Finally click Apply Now and close the Network window.

You have now completed setting up OS X and when you open your Web Browser, the Mac should automatically dial into Faithnomore and connect.
