Setting Connection and Network Preferences: Network Preferences

Network Preferences

You must set Network preferences as well as Connection preferences to be able to use the TCP/IP software included in the handheld

operating system for remote connections. Network preferences let you set a password, telephone number, DNS number, IP address,

as well as create a login script for remote connections. You can use a preset service template for your ISP or dial-in server, and edit,

save, and reuse settings. You can also create your own service template.

To set network preferences:

1. Tap the

Home icon

. Then tap the

Prefs icon

.

2. Tap the pick list in the upper right corner of the screen and select

Network.

3. Tap the

Service pick list. Tap the predefined service template you want to use.

4. Tap the

User Name field. Only two lines appear on the screen, but the field can contain multiple lines of text.

5. Enter your user name that identifies you on logging in to your ISP or dial-in server. Do not enter spaces in your user

name unless your dial-in server accepts them.

6. Choose whether to use a password when logging onto your ISP or dial-up service:

• To save your password for use during log-on, tap the

Password field. Enter your password and tap OK. “As-

signed” appears in the field.

• To have your iQue prompt you for the password during log-on, leave “Prompt” in the Password field and do not

enter anything. You should choose this option if you are concerned about security.
