How to disconnect from the internet (free up your phone line)

You can disconnect from the Internet and free up your phone line by right-clicking on the small picture of two computers that can be found at the bottom right of your screen (this icon shows that you are currently online).

This will open a pop-up window with a short list of options. Click on Disconnect or Hang up. In a few moments the two computers will disappear and your modem will disconnect from the Internet.

Note: Windows XP users may not see the connection icon of two computers at the bottom right of the screen. If that is the case follow these instructions:

• Go to your Desktop
• Double click on the MyDigicom icon on your desktop.
• Select Hang up.

Apple Macintosh

Apple users can follow these instructions to disconnect:

• Click on the Apple icon   in the top left of the screen
• Click on Control Panels
• Click on Remote Access (or PPP on some Macs)
• Click on Disconnect

Alternatively, if you have the Control Strip feature activated you can click on the icon that shows an Apple Mac and a telegraph pole and click again on Disconnect.
