Setting up a remote connection to your network

After your network administrator has set up your account, you need to create a connection on your HP Jornada so that you can connect to your network, e-mail, and intranet (possibly including the Internet) easily whenever you want to. Use HP dialup to create the connection on your HP Jornada. HP dialup leads you through the process of configuring for your connections, including:

•Setting up a connection to your network.

•Setting up an e-mail service (if you choose E-mail Service as an option).

•Setting up a Web service (if you choose Web Service as an option). In this case, the Web may be your corporate intranet or the Worldwide Web.

•Setting up a dialing location.

You will have the opportunity to set the following options during the dial-up configuration process.

Service provider connection

This portion of the program allows you to name and save your network connection. You can create more than one connection (for example, one connection to your corporate network and one to your personal ISP). Choose a connection name that will make it easy to determine which connection you want when you are ready to dial up. At this point, you will also complete the following tasks:

Choose E-mail and/or Web service—You can choose one or both options. Your network administrator can tell you which options are available to you.

Choose Typical or Advanced setup—Typical setup will automate most of the connection configuration by using default settings. Advanced setup allows you more control over setup options. Typical and Advanced setup options are offered at the beginning of each stage of the setup process: Service Provider (in this case, your network administrator), E-mail Service, and Web Service.

Input Service Provider information—This includes information provided by your network administrator, such as the dial-up telephone number and IP, DNS, and WINS address settings. Many networks automatically (or, dynami- cally) assign both IP and DNS addresses. If your network does not assign these automatically, you should clear the Server-assigned addresses option and type the addresses.
