Setting Up a Dial-up Internet Connection
Before you can connect to the Internet, you need to connect your computer to a telephone line via a telephone cable (supplied
with VGC-V600MG only). Once you set up your telephone cable, you're ready to connect to the Internet.
Note that you need to slide the back panel cover up to access the modem port .
To connect a telephone cable
1 Plug one end of the phone cable (1) into the modem port on the computer.
2 Plug the other end into the wall jack (2).
✍
Your computer does not work with party lines, cannot be connected to a coin-operated telephone, and may not work with multiple telephone lines or a private
branch exchange (PBX). Some of these connections may result in excess electrical current and could cause a malfunction in the internal modem.
If you connect a telephone cable coming through a splitter, the modem or connected device may not work properly.
