Creating an Ethernet Connection

1Contact your network administrator to obtain a user name, password, and domain name.

2Install the network card driver, if required. For more information, see the documentation that came with your network card.

3The Network Settings window appears automatically the first time you

insert the network card so that you can configure the network card. To change settings later, tap the Start button → Settings → Connections tab → Connections.

4If you need to enter specific server information, tap the appropriate adapter, and then tap Properties. You may need to enter proxy server and VPN connection settings. For more information, see your network administrator.

NOTE: Most networks use DHCP, so you do not need to change the connection settings unless your network administrator instructs you

to do so.

5If necessary, connect the network card to the network by using a network cable. For more information, see the documentation that came with your network card.
