Chapter 4 Connecting to the Internet 49
Before you can use a modem to connect to an ISP or to dial in to a specific desktop PC, you must create a connection for that service on your HP Jornada. If you use an NIC to connect to a corporate network, you must configure your network connection. Your HP Jornada will recognize the connection once you attach the network cable to the NIC.

1.Install a modem or NIC. For more information, see “Connecting your HP Jornada” earlier in this chapter.
2.On the Start menu, tap Settings, and then tap the Connections tab.
3.Tap the Modem icon.
4.Tap New Connection.
5.Enter a name for the connection. The name can be anything you want, but it should describe the connection, for example, “corporate dialup.”
6.Select the make and model of your modem from the list. If your modem is not listed, it may be installed incorrectly. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions to be sure.
7.Select the baud rate. The selected rate must be supported by both your modem and the ISP or network computer you will connect to. If you are not sure about the rate, contact your account administrator.
8.If your ISP or account administrator provided specific settings, such as IP addresses, DNS addresses, or parity or flow control— or if your connection uses SLIP— tap Advanced, and enter this information on the appropriate tab.
9.Tap Next, and then enter the telephone number you dial to connect to your ISP or network computer.
10.Tap Next, and then set dialing options.
11.Tap Finish.
12.On the Dialing tab, select your dialing location and set any necessary options or dialing patterns. (For a description of dialing strings and dialing options, see online Help on your HP Jornada.)
To establish a connection, follow the procedure “To connect to an ISP or desktop PC,” below.
