Am I Online?

When you successfully connect with the Juno software, the following three things will happen:

1. A network icon will appear in the taskbar in the lower right-hand corner of your screen and the picture of the two little computers will start to blink. This means that you are online and communicating with our system.
2. Your default Web browser will open and load the My Juno start page.
3. The JunoPort or Juno Platinum Companion will dock at the top or bottom of your screen.
