Configuring Your Browser

An Internet browser is a program used to find and display Web

pages. To find a page, the browser must connect to the

Internet, via either phone lines or a LAN (Local Area Network).
When using a cable modem, you need to set the browser to

connect to the Internet via a LAN.
This chapter describes how to configure some of the most

common Internet browsers. It is beyond the scope of this

manual to give step-by-step instructions for all versions of all

browsers, so the instructions below cover only the major

versions of the most common browsers. If you are using

another browser, please consult the documentation that came

with it.

Options. The Internet Properties dialog box appears. Click the

Connections tab to view options for setting or changing the
