Connectivity options

Your computer has built-in connectivity options, enabling you to hook
up to a network or communicate over a phone line.

Ethernet and LAN

The integrated network feature allows you to connect your computer
to an Ethernet-based (10/100/1000 Mbps) network.

To use the network feature, plug an Ethernet cable into your
computer's network jack, and then connect the other end to a network
jack or hub on your network.

See Windows Help for information on setting up a network
connection.

Fax/data modem

Your computer features a software modem (V.92 56Kbps), enabling
you to communicate over a phone line. This means that you can
connect to the Internet via a dialup account with an ISP, log in to your
network from a remote location, or send faxes.

Warning: Your modem is not compatible with digital phone lines.
Plugging the computer into a digital phone system will damage
the modem.
