Establishing an account or guest privileges on the network

Contact your network administrator to set up an account or guest privileges on the network. The network administrator will give you the information you need to log on to the network, including user name, password, domain name, and IP address (if applicable).

Use the Network control panel to configure the NIC with the information your network administrator has provided.

To configure the NIC

1.On the Start menu, point to Settings, and then tap Control Panel.

2.Double-tap the Network icon. The Network Configuration dialog box appears.

3.On the Adapters tab, select the driver or adapter, and then tap Properties. Check with your network administrator if you do not know which settings to use.

4.On the Identification tab, enter your user name, password, and domain name. This information will be saved, so you will not have to type it every time you connect to a network resource.
