need to create an Internet setup (as described in the next section):
m whether you should use PPP or SLIP
m the ISP host’s phone number
m your user name and password
m if you’re going to use e-mail, you need e-mail information, such as your e-mail
account, password, and mail servers (for incoming and outgoing mail)
m IP addresses for your device, the ISP host, and the domain name server
(sometimes called DNS)
m whether you should use dynamic or static addressing
