After the BBS disconnects (hangs up), you will probably see NO CARRIER on your screen. Approximately 30 seconds after the disconnect, the BBS will try to call you back. When you see RING on your screen, or hear the phone ringing, type ATA and press enter. Wait, without pressing any keys, until you see a CONNECT message. Shortly after you see CONNECT, the BBS will ask for your login password. After entering the correct password, your security status will be upgraded immediately.
