Chapter 6 Accessing e-mail and the Web 91

Setting up a dial-up connection to your ISP

After you have established an account with an ISP, you can set up a connection on your HP Jornada and connect to the Internet and your e-mail whenever you want. To make this configuration process easier, use the HP Jornada dialup application. HP dialup leads you through the process of configuring your connections, including:

•Setting up a connection to your ISP.

•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).

•Setting up a dialing location.

The following sections describe the process that HP dialup will lead you through and the type of information you will need to provide.

ISP connection

The first section of the setup program allows you to save and name your ISP 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. Most ISPs offer both e-mail and Web services.

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: ISP service setup, E-mail service setup, and Web service setup.
