CONNECTING TO A NETWORK

If you have access to a network, you can connect to your network by creating a dial-up connection using a RAS account. Before you can create this dial-up connection, your network administrator needs to set up a RAS account for you.

To create a dial-up connection to a network:

If your device does not have a built-in modem, install a modem card.

Get the following information from your network administrator: corporate dial-up access telephone number, user name, password, domain name, and TCP/IP settings.

Select StartàProgramsàCommunicationàConnections.

Double-tap the Make New Connection icon.

Enter a name for the connection, such as "Corporate Dial-Up."

Select Dial-Up Connection, then select Next.

Select your modem type. You should not need to change settings in the Configure or TCP/IP Settings dialog boxes. When finished, select Next.

Enter the access phone number and select Finish.

Once you have created the dial-up connection, double-tap the connection, enter your user name, password, and domain, and select Connect any time you want to connect. Once connected, you can use Inbox to send and receive e-mail. Before you can use Inbox, you need to provide the information it needs to communicate with the mail server. For specific instructions, see Inbox.
