PPPWindows10SetupNotes RevA

1. To set up PPP on Windows 10 for connecting a UPS to a computer, some registry edits and settings changes need to be made. This includes adding a privilege to the registry, setting COM port and flow control settings, configuring a dial-up connection using the COM port, and disabling default gateway and IPv6 settings. 2. After rebooting and enabling pass-through mode using the appropriate software, the PPP connection can then be started normally through the network icon in the taskbar. 3. Key settings to configure include the COM port number, flow control set to none, idle time set to never, and disabling default gateway and IPv6 for the PPP network connection.

Known to work 8 June 2017 with Windows 10:

1. If you are using Win10 and have had the ‘Creator’s Edition’ deployed, do registry hack:
Windows Start Icon, type ‘regedit’ and start in Admin mode. Navigate to this key: 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan

in the key “RequiredPrivileges” add: SeLoadDriverPrivilege

Put a CR at the end of the new value (cursor will be at beginning of line) or RegEdit will give
you an error message and do it automatically for you.
Click OK, close RegEdit.
2. Device Manager: Ports (COM & LPT): UPS Serial Port: Port Settings:

You HAVE to set the ‘Flow Control’ to ‘None’.


Under ‘Advanced’:

Most tools default to using the lowest COM port installed on a machine by default. Therefore it
will save you a lot of time if you force the COM Port Number to be COM1 for the adapter that
you are using (assuming you are using a USB to Serial convertor.)
3. Control Panel: Phone and Modem: Modems (tab)
click on ‘Add’, then check ‘Don’t detect my modem, I will select from list’, then click on Next.
Select (Standard Modem Types): “Communications cable between computers…”, then click on
Next. Wait…
Highlight COM1 port in lower grid, click on Next. After 15 seconds ‘Your modem has been set up
successfully’ is shown, click on Finish.
Now highlight new port, then click on Properties. Wait 15 seconds. Click on ‘Change Settings’ on
the ‘General’ tab. Wait 15 seconds for dialog to appear.
4. On the Modem tab:

Set max port speed to 115200.


IMPORTANT!
Select the ‘Advanced’ tab, click on ‘Change Default Preferences’:

Set the Port speed to 115200, set the Flow Control to NONE. (I believe that if you set Flow
Control to hardware, it is responsible for the 777 error when connecting.)
Click on OK.
Click on OK to close ‘Phone and Modem’.
a. Go to ‘Control Panel: Network and Sharing Center’ click on ‘Setup a new connection or
network’.

5.

Click on ‘Connect to the Internet’ (the top one), click on Next. Click on ‘Setup a new connection
anyway’, click on ‘Dial-up’, click on ‘Communications cable between two computers’
6. Enter 123 for phone number, make the Connection name something memorable ‘BD9xPPP’:

click on Connect. Click on ‘Skip’ while it is dialing. When ‘The connection is ready for use’ is
shown, click on Close.
If you get a 633 error, don’t worry it will get fixed when we reboot later. Do ‘Setup the
connection anyway…’
7. Go to ‘Control Panel: Network and Sharing Center: Change adapter settings’, right-click on
BD9xPPP and chose Properies. On the Options tab:

Only check the top box. Set idle time to NEVER. Click on ‘PPP Settings’:

Click OK. On the ‘Networking’ tab only check Version 4:


6

Uncheck IPv6, then highlight IPv4 and click on Properties, then click ‘Advanced’:

Uncheck ‘Use default gateway’ on the ‘IP Settings’ tab. (The default settings on ‘DNS’ and ‘WINS’
tab will be fine.)
Click OK three times.
8. Reboot the computer.
9. From the desktop, run Pavel’s pass-through program, or use HcConfig to set pass-through mode:

or
Click on ‘Set and Exit’ 7
10. Start PPP normally (click on wireless network icon on task bar, then choose BD9xPPP.)
