A dial-up connection set up on your HP Jornada—
HP dialup makes this step easy.

Access to a telephone line—You can connect to an
analog telephone line with your HP Jornada 680. Or,

Installing and configuring a modem
The HP Jornada 680 has a built-in 56K V.90 modem for
easy communication, so no installation is required. The
HP Jornada 680e supports a variety of available PC Card
modems. (For more information about compatible PC Card
modems, go to the HP Jornada Accessories page on the
Hewlett-Packard Web site at www.hp.com/jornada.) Follow
the manufacturer’s instructions included with the PC Card
modem to install and configure it for use with your
HP Jornada.
Establishing a network dial-up account
Before you can log on to your network using a modem, you
must establish a network account with your network
administrator. Most likely, you will dial in to a server that
has a modem installed to receive your call. The information
you need for this connection is similar to the information
needed to connect to the Internet through an ISP:
•
Your account user name.
•
Your account password.
•
Telephone number of the network server modem.
•
IP, DNS, and WINS addresses, if necessary.
•
Your e-mail user name or ID. (This may be the same as
your network user name.)
