Set Up Internet Service

You must set up Internet service before you can connect to the Internet. HP has made arrangements with leading ISPs in many locations to help you set up a new Internet account or to configure your notebook to use an existing account.

Depending on your location, you might be able to set up Internet service by using an ISP-provided icon on your desktop.

In all locations, you can set up Internet service by using the Windows Internet Connection wizard.

Using an ISP-Provided Icon

If ISP-provided icons are supported in the country in which you purchased your notebook, the icons might be displayed either individually on the Windows desktop or grouped in a desktop folder named Online Services.

To set up a new Internet account or configure your notebook to use an existing account, double-click an icon, and then follow the instructions on the screen.
