INFINITY Data Reference No: MMPL/2018/04-08

Crew tips for Web usage 1. In the logon screen of INFINITY the browser may ask – depending on the enabled options– to

store your user name and password. It is strongly recommended not to use this option.

2. After successful login, a pop-up window will appear showing information about the consumed

volume in MBs, time of inactivity etc. This pop-up window can be blocked if your browser has

enabled a pop-up blocker. It is recommended to disable it. In case the pop-up window doesn’t

appear you can type in the address of your web browser the url http://infinity:3990.

3. When you start browsing, it is strongly recommended to click on the “Light Surfing” button

that can be found on the pop-up window in order to minimize the volume of data consumed.

Alternatively you can access http://www.google.com/xhtml before any other website.

4. If you want instead to use “Normal Surfing” option (the original form of the websites) a

powerful proxy compresses the images (by reducing the quality of them) and removes the

advertisements and other data from pages. That way INFINITY still reduces the consumed

bandwidth.

5. If you have enabled the Windows update or any application that searches the Internet for any

new version, make sure that the download file size is as expected. A large update can easily be

more than 50MB and can consume your entire card shortly. It is strongly recommended to

disable Windows automatic update and any other automatic update such as Adobe Acrobat

Reader.

For Windows XP you can go to Start Control Panel Automatic Updates and click over the bullet

“Turn off Automatic Updates.” For Windows Vista/7 go to Start Control Panel Windows Update

from the left list of actions select Change settings Important updates and choose “Never check

for updates (not recommended)”.

6. For security reasons the system will automatically log you out if you don’t use the browser for 5

minutes. After a system logout you can login again as usual with you username and password.

7. Log out any time by clicking over the Logout in INFINITY status window. You can log out by

closing the status window but this action is not supported by all browsers.

8. Although the usage of INFINITY doesn’t require any specific browser, the usage of Microsoft

Internet Explorer, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Safari and Google Chrome (excluding

google.com/xhtml function for Mozilla Firefox, Safari and Google Chrome) is recommended.

After the user has logged in, a popup window with all the needed information of his current

connection appears. Depending on the defined quotas the static users can see all or some of the

following data. If for example there is no time limit quota there won’t be any “Time” bar at all. Like

the permanent users, the users with PINs it depends what they can see in the popup window on PINs

window. They can combine the usage of their “allowance” volume of data with purchased volume at

To illustrate: a shipping company is offering 100MB per month to the officers. The officers

have each one of them their own username and password information with 100MB allowance per

month for data connections. At any time they can purchase more units by using the “Buy Now” button

–see directions below. The conversion factor from dollars to MBs and calling units is set from the

“Providers” screen (explained before in this document).
