COMPUSERVE'S
Direct Dial Japan Service

JAPAN - USA NETWORK SERVICE
Reference Guide

CompuServe's network hub in Tokyo provides for asynchronous dial-up access from throughout Tokyo to hosts on CompuServe at speeds of 300 - 14,400 bps.

LOGON OPTIONS

Like the NIFTY Leased Line, the Tokyo Micronode provides services at a lower communication surcharge rate. CompuServe Mail, CB Simulator, Message Boards, Conferences and Convention centers are not accessible via this line due to Japanese telecommunications regulations.

Access through the COMPUPASS Line provides access to all areas of the
CompuServe Information Service.

To access in Tokyo through this node, dial 03-5471-4790 (300-14.4 bps) or 03-5471-7650 (300-14.4 bps) and logon using standard CompuServe network logon procedures.

ACCESS INSTRUCTIONS

1. Establish a phone connection by dialing the CompuServe access number above or under menu option "List Access Numbers".

NOTE: Many PBX's in Japanese hotels and businesses have an oscillating dial tone that modems interpret as a busy signal, and therefore will not dial. To bypass this problem, issue the modem command "ATX0" before issuing the dial command. Or, you can include it in the dial command such as: ATX0DT0,0354714790.

2. Once the connection has been made,
