Connect to the Internet
You can connect to your ISP, and use the connection to send and receive
email messages and view Web or WAP pages.
You can connect to work in one of two ways:
■ Create a modem connection. If this is the method you want to use, see
“ To create a modem connection to an ISP ”.
■ Use an Ethernet card and a net tap to connect to the network. If this is
the method you want to use, see “ To create an Ethernet connection to
an ISP ”.
To create a modem connection to an ISP
1. Obtain the following information from your ISP: ISP dial-up access
telephone number, user name, password, and TCP/IP settings. Some
ISPs require information in front of the user name, such as MSN/
username.
2. If your device does not have a built-in modem, install a modem card, or
use or use a NULL modem cable and appropriate adapters to connect
an external modem to your device through the serial port.
3. Tap , Settings, Connections tab, Connections.
4. In My ISP, tap Add a new modem connection, and follow the
instructions in the New Connection wizard.
5. Enter a name for the connection, such as your ISP's name.
6. In the Select a modem list, tap your modem type. If you are using any
type of external modem, in the Select a modem list, select the modem
by name. If a listing does not exist for your external modem, tap Hayes
Compatible on COM1.
7. Enter the phone number exactly as you want it dialed. If you know part
of the phone number will change frequently as you travel, use dialing
rules to avoid creating numerous modem connections for the same
phone number.
You can also send items, but not folders, from File Explorer. Tap and hold
the item you want to send, and then tap Beam File on the pop-up menu.
To change modem connection settings, in either My ISP or My Work
Network, tap Manage existing connections. Select the desired modem
connection, tap Edit, and follow the instructions on the screen.
