Converting Your Computer Settings for the New Learning Link Server

Generally, the only change necessary to log onto the new server is to eliminate the blank window where you have entered your ID and Password.

The instructions for eliminating this page are:
  1. Windows 95/98
    1. Open My Computer on your Desktop
    2. Click on Dial-up Connection
    3. Right click on your Learning Link dial-up connection
    4. Select Properties
    5. On the General tab, click on Configure
    6. Click on Options
    7. Uncheck the window that says “Bring up Terminal Window after opening.”

  2. Windows 2000/ME/XP
    1. Open your “Control Panel” by clicking on “Start” and “Control panel.”
    2. Click on “Control Panel” and click on “Network and Dial-up.”
    3. Right click on the “WVIZ dial-up Connection,” select “Properties”
    4. Click on the “Security” tab.
    5. Uncheck the Terminal Window box
    6. Click OK and keep clicking OK until all the windows are closed.

    Since the dial-up will operate in the background, you may have click on Internet Explorer or your web browser in order to open it. If this does not work and you have followed all of the above procedures, please call Karen Sottosanti at 216-739- 3839 or Dave Cottrell at 216-739-3838.
