Your device will automatically begin connecting. Once connected, you can:

To create an Ethernet connection to an ISP
1. You do not need to create a new connection on your device. Instead,
you must purchase and configure an Ethernet card that is compatible
with your device.
2. Obtain the following information from your ISP: user name, password,
and domain name.
3. Insert the Ethernet card into your device. For instructions on inserting
and using the Ethernet card, see the owner’s manual for the card.
4. The first time you insert the card, Network Settings will appear
automatically so that you can configure the network card. If it does not
appear, or to change settings later, tap
, Settings, Connections tab,
Connections, Advanced tab, Network Card.
5. If you need to enter specific server information, tap the appropriate
adapter. Most networks use DHCP, so you should not have to change
these settings unless your network administrator instructs you to do so.
6. If necessary, connect the network card to the network by using a
network cable. For information, see the documentation that came with
your network card.
To start a connection, insert the network card, and begin using a desired
program. For example, switch to Pocket Internet Explorer and browse to a
Web page. Your device will automatically begin connecting.
