Chapter 3 Accessing e-mail and the Web 35

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. The HP Jornada dialup application 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 location, a procedure that sets dialing options

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

ISP connection

This portion of the program allows you to save and name your ISP connection configuration. You can have more than one connection configuration (for example, one connection to your corporate network and one to your personal ISP), so 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 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 HP Jornada dialup configuration process: ISP service setup, E-mail Service setup, and Web Service setup.
