Determining Connection Type
When you use the AOL Desktop for Mac Setup Assistant to add a location, AOL Desktop for Mac performs a scan of the devices on your computer and suggests a location type based on the results of the scan. You do not have to accept the recommended location. For example, if the results of the scan recommend a broadband location, but you plan to use the location to connect by dial-up when you are traveling, you can change the location to dial-up and continue with set up.
