Network Configuration (NCI) Mode: Use Offline Account Creation

In NCI mode, Account Setup presents screens that ask users for account, modem, and dialing information, then uses this information to configure their dialer and TCP/IP software. NCI mode does not connect users to a registration server to create accounts.

If you choose this option, Account Setup automatically hides the "Start Account Setup" screen, which lets users choose the mode they want to use. Instead, it takes them directly into the first screen of the NCI mode, "Your Account Access Location".

If you are offering the NCI mode to users, you can make the set-up process easier for users by providing account information to Account Setup in advance. To do this, create NCI configurations when you get to the "Your Account Access Location" screen.
