Sign-Up Uses The Microsoft Network Phone Numbers
Last reviewed: October 28, 1997

Article ID: Q133437

The information in this article applies to:


 * The Microsoft Network versions 1.0, 1.05, 1.2, 1.3, 2.0

During sign-up for The Microsoft Network, if you click Settings and then click Access Numbers, the Service Type box is unavailable and has The Microsoft Network selected. This occurs because sign-up can happen using only phone numbers for The Microsoft Network, not using phone numbers for Internet and The Microsoft Network. Therefore, during sign-up you are restricted to selecting The Microsoft Network service type.

Note that this situation affects only the number used to accomplish sign-up and does not affect your access numbers for The Microsoft Network. When sign-up is finished, you can select either The Microsoft Network or Internet And The Microsoft Network.
