Please be patient with the registration process, the most lengthly part is processing the paper version, and after the time elapses you will have full access to the GLFN. The electronic registration is pleasantly simple, once you get the software configured for your computer. You need to know what brand name your modem is, and you must decide if you want to connect using your existing internet PPP (point to point protocol internet service) account, or if you want to gain access by dialing directly to it. If you don't have an internet service provider and a PPP account, you can still use the older method and connect directly.
