42 HP Jornada H/PC User’s Guide
•An account with your corporate network set for dialing in to your network server—Your network administrator can provide you with important informa- tion, such as a user name, password, dial-up phone number(s), server names, and so on.
•A dial-up connection set up on your HP Jornada— This step is made easier with the HP Jornada dialup application, included on your HP Jornada.
•Access to a phone line—You can connect to an analog phone line with your HP Jornada 820. Or, connect to the phone line supported by your PC Card modem if you have the HP Jornada 820e.
If you use the HP Jornada 820 (with built-in modem), you must use an analog phone line to connect your modem. Connecting to a digital phone line can damage your modem.
Installing and configuring a modem
The HP Jornada 820 has a built-in 56K V.90 modem for easy communication, so no installation is required. The HP Jornada 820e supports a variety of available PC Card modems. (For more information about compatible PC Card modems, go to the HP Jornada Accessories page on the Hewlett-Packard Web site at www.hp.com/handheld.) To install and configure a PC Card modem for use with your HP Jornada, follow the manufacturer’s instructions .
Establishing a network dial-up accountBefore you can log on to your network using a modem, you must establish a network account with your network admin- istrator. Most likely, you will dial in to a server that has a modem installed to receive your call. The information you need for this connection is similar to the information needed to connect to the Internet through an ISP:
•Your account user name
•Your account password
