Because there are many variants of operating systems and versions as well as differing protocols, the dialog boxes pictured above may not appear exactly the same as the version of software or operating system in your computer.
However, FOURnet's Internet Addresses, and the configuration steps required to setup your connection to the Internet are the same and do not require any changes regardless of which computer or operating system you use to connect to the Internet.
