Section 8: Getting Connected

8.1 About Connections

You can set up connections to the Internet and corporate
network at work in order to do activities such as browsing the
Internet or intranet, sending and receiving e-mail and instant
messages, and synchronizing information.

Connections can be made using a modem, wireless network, or
network (Ethernet) card. A modem connection can be used to
set up connections with an external modem, or through your
service network using a cellular line.

Your PPC6600 has two groups of connection settings:

Sprint

and

My Work Network. The Sprint settings are used to connect

to the Internet, and

My Work Network settings can be used to

connect to any private network, such as a corporate network
you use at work. Simply fill in the settings and you’ll be ready
to start connecting.
