Dial-up

Your device’s networking capability allows you to access the Internet through the dial-up connection. Settings for connecting to your service provider’s 1xRTT/EVDO network are already preconfigured on your device, and your device is ready to connect to the Internet. Do not change these settings as this may cause your data connection to stop working.

If you need to use another dial-up connection from an ISP (Internet Service Provider), you can manually add it to your device. To establish a dial-up connection on your device, you need the same settings that you normally use when you dial up from your computer. This includes the ISP server phone number, your user name and password.

1.Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections.

2.Tap Add a new modem connection.

3.On the Make New Connection screen, enter a name for the connection and select Cellular Line in the Select a modem list, then tap Next.

4.Enter the ISP server phone number, then tap Next.

5.Enter your user name, password, and any other information required by your ISP, then tap Finish.
