Getting Connected
Creating a Modem Connection
1 Install a modem card and appropriate adapters to connect an external
modem to your device through the serial port.
2 Obtain the following information from your ISP:
- ISP dial-up access telephone number
- Username and password
- TCP/IP settings
Some ISPs require information in front of the username, such as
MSN/username.
3 Tap the Start button → Settings → Connections tab → Connections.
4 Under My ISP or My Work Network, tap Add a new modem connection.
5 Enter a name for the connection, such as ISP Connection .
6 From the Select a modem list, select your modem type, and tap Next.
If your modem type does not appear, try reinserting the modem card. If
you are using an external modem that is connected to your device with
a cable, select Hayes Compatible on COM1.
7 Enter the access phone number and tap Next.
8 Enter your user name, password, and, if applicable, your domain.
NOTE:
You should not need to change any settings in Advanced. Most ISPs
now use a dynamically assigned address.
9 If the ISP you are connecting to does not use a dynamically assigned
address, tap Advanced, tap the TCP/IP tab, and then enter the address.
10 Tap Next.
11 Select other appropriate options and tap Finish.
