• The modem is ready for use.
Connecting to a Local Area Network (LAN) to Access the Internet
To connect the computer to a LAN:
• Flip the NONSECURE/STU switch to the NONSECURE position.
• Connect an RJ45 LAN cable (looks like the RJ11 phone line except a little thicker) from
the LAN connection in the back of the case (shown in Figure 19 ) to the LAN connection
desired.
• Take the "Y" Phone Cable and connect the single plug end to the docking bar and insert
the RJ45 plug into the RJ45 connection of the Xircom card (see Figure 20).
• Insert the Xircom Card into the PCMCIA card slot of the computer.
• Click on the Start button and go to the Run option. Type in the word winipcfg.
• Click on Renew All and OK to get access to the LAN.
NOTE: If the network connection is denied, then restart the computer with the
LAN connection still in place. When Windows98 starts up, it will ask you for the
network password. Once supplied, then the computer will be on the network.
• See the sections on non-secure communications for more details on how to use the
modem.
