OptiLink Telephone Service features
Caller ID
Caller ID will identify both the name and the number of incoming callers
– letting you know who is calling before you pick up the phone. You also will
receive Caller ID on Call Waiting which lets you know the name and number
of the incoming call even while you’re on the line with someone else.
The following may be displayed in lieu of a name/number: P for Private
appears when the calling party has restricted the presentation of their name;
Call Blocked is displayed if the calling party has restricted the presentation of
their number; and O for Out-of-Area is displayed if the calling name and/or
number are unavailable for display.
Please note: You must have a Caller ID capable phone to use the Caller ID
feature. Additionally, your phone must be capable of displaying Caller ID on
Call Waiting if you wish to use that feature.
Caller ID Block (Permanent)
Don’t want your name and number displayed when you call folks? This
service blocks the delivery of your name/number to the called party for all
calls. Contact our office at 706-529-1313 to have Permanent Caller ID Block
activated for your line.
To temporarily unblock your Permanent Caller ID Block, press *82.
Caller ID Block – Single Call
Only want to block your name and number on selected calls? This service

call if it would normally be displayed (i.e. public).
To activate, the caller must enter *67 followed by the dialed number.
Anonymous Call Rejection
Anonymous Call Rejection allows you to reject incoming calls on which
Caller ID has been blocked. When this feature is activated, calls of this nature
don’t even come through on your line. They are simply routed to a denial
announcement and subsequently terminated.

The power behind OptiLink’s High-Speed Internet Service is our revolutionary
100% fiber optic network. You can now enjoy data transmission speeds that
are unattainable through traditional connectivity offerings. Our speeds are 3,
6 and 9 Mb. Our lowest speed offering, 3 Mb, is 52 times faster than dialup, 4 times faster than standard DSL and 3 times faster than a standard cable
modem.
Before you begin enjoying your high-speed internet services, you need to
assess your computer system to learn:
• What are the system requirements for my computer?
• What information do I need to set up my email program?
• What information do I need to access web space?
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
OptiLink High-Speed Internet Service is compatible with most PC and
Macintosh computers. Below are the minimum recommended requirements
for your computer system. In order to receive optimal performance from
your OptiLink High-Speed Internet service, these recommended system
requirements must be met. Note: Minimum requirements are subject to change.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are unsure whether or not your system meets these
requirements or whether or not you have a Network Interface Card or NIC,
our installers will assess your computer for you. If no NIC is found, you need
to have one installed. If you wish to install your own NIC, our installers have
7

instructions they can leave with you. If you do not feel comfortable installing a
NIC, we recommend that you take your computer to a reputable professional
for installation.

IDENTIFYING & INSTALLING A NETWORK
INTERFACE CARD (NIC)
• Locate the “RJ45” on the back of your computer. (It looks like a phone
jack but wider.)
• This connection requires a patch cord (which will be provided to you by
OptiLink) to connect your computer to the Internet.
• If you need additional help establishing if your computer has a
Network Interface Card or NIC, call our OptiLink 24/7 Help Desk at
(706) 529-1313.
Installing a Network Interface Card (NIC)
• Please note: To avoid electrical shock, it is important to properly ground
yourself before installing any electrical equipment into your PC.
• Turn off your computer and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
• Open your computer case following manufacturer-recommended
procedures.
• Find an available free PCI slot.
• Aligned with the PCI slot should be a plate covering an opening, remove
it.
• Insert the PCI network card into the PCI slot. It should slide in without
much force. When the network card is installed, secure it by screwing it
into the backplate.
• Close your computer case and plug in your cables.
• Turn on your computer.
• After your computer powers up, Windows should detect the network card
12
10
and give you a “New Hardware Found” message. Have Windows detect
it automatically. You may also need to have the Windows CD in your
CD-Rom drive for the network drivers to be installed. If you receive such a
prompt, insert the Windows CD.
• If Windows cannot install or find the NIC drivers, then you must install the
drivers manually. Insert the drivers disk that came with your NIC card
and run the setup. If the drivers disk does not have a setup program but
only has files, choose the INF file from the browse window.
• Windows may ask you to restart after you have installed your network
card. If asked, restart the machine.
• Your network card should now be installed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far back can I rewind live TV? The length of time you can rewind
live TV depends on how long you have been tuned to a single channel. Each
time you change channels, a new copy is automatically stored to the built-in
recorder. This copy saves up to the last 1 hour of programming. For example,
if you have been watching the same channel for 15 minutes, you can rewind
that 15 minutes of the program.
Can I record the quarter screen in the Program Guide or the PVR

Guide. Press Exit to display the video in full screen, and then press Record.

swap it to the Main screen first. After pressing Record and confirming the recording, you can swap it back to the PIP screen and it will continue recording.
You can also press PIP On/Off and the video will continue to record.

the beginning to record the entire program? No, if you have been tuned
to the program since its beginning, just press Record from any point in the
program to record the entire program. Recording will automatically stop when

used. Press List and then press for preferences.

What happens if my PVR loses power temporarily? Everything you have
recorded is saved, based on the save time you selected in the Confirm Recording screen. Your scheduled recordings during the time the PVR lost power are
the only recordings you may miss.
Do my Parental Controls in the Program Guide carry over to PVR
recordings? Yes. If you block programs by channel or rating in the General
Settings menu, those settings are carried over to PVR recordings. For example,
if you decide to block all R-rated programs in the General Settings menu, the
R-rated programs will still be recorded, but you cannot play them back until
you enter the correct PIN.
How do I block or erase individual recordings in my recorded list or
change the save time for the recording? Highlight the recording on the Recorded List screen, and press Select on the remote control. An Options screen
appears for the program you selected.
