name. For example username@bamnet. Important: do not add
".com" to the end of @bamnet - this will not work!
Visit our Dial-Up
Number page and choose your desired dialup number.
Enter the number in the space as shown above.
Notes:
If dialing our U.S. 1-800 number, enter the entire
number as 1-800-737-7530. If dialing one of our non-800
style numbers (see
list), use the calling format that works for the area
you are in. For example, if no area code is required when
dialing, you might only need XXX-XXXX as the number to dial.
Each country/state have their own calling formats. For more
information on calling patterns including access from Hotels,
visit our Helpful Tips section in the upper right corner
of this page.
