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 (not supplied). Once you have set up your
telephone cable, you’re ready to connect to the Internet.
To connect a telephone cable
1 Locate the Modem jack on your computer. For location information, see
Locating Ports and Controls in the Setting Up chapter of your printed
VAIO® Computer Quick Start.
2 Plug one end of the telephone cable into the Modem jack. Make sure it clicks
into place.
3 Plug the other end into the wall jack.
