Visit Internet or intranet Web or WAP pages by using Pocket Internet

To create an Ethernet connection to a network:
1. You do not need to create a new connection on your device. Instead,
you must purchase and configure an Ethernet card that is compatible
with your device.
2. Get the following information from your network administrator: user
name, password, and domain name.
3. Insert the Ethernet card into your device. For instructions on inserting
and using the Ethernet card, see the owner’s manual for the card.
4. The first time you insert the card, Network Settings will appear
automatically so that you can configure the network card. If it does
not appear, or to change settings later, tap
> Settings >
Connections tab > Connections > Advanced tab > Network Card.
