Setting Preferences for Your Handheld

Selecting a connection

The Connection Preferences settings enable your handheld to use a
modem to communicate with remote devices. For example, you can
communicate with your ISP server, or with your computer if you are
away on travel. See “Connection preferences” earlier in this chapter
for a complete explanation on how to configure Connection
Preferences.

To select a connection:

1. Tap the Connection pick list.

The list displays the configurations in your Connection Prefer-
ences panel.

2. Select the appropriate Connection.

Adding telephone settings

When you select the Phone field, your handheld opens a dialog box in
which you define the telephone number you use to connect with your
ISP or dial-in server. In addition, you can also define a prefix, disable
Call Waiting, and give special instructions for using a calling card.

Note: The Phone Setup dialog box works correctly for AT&T and

Sprint long-distance services. However, because MCI works
differently, MCI customers need to put the calling card
number in the Phone # field and the phone number in the Use
calling card field.
