Connecting to the Internet

Chapter 3 – Operation

Your Multi-Tech modem is your gateway to the Internet and the World Wide Web. To access the Internet and Web via your modem, you must establish a dial-up account with an Internet service provider (ISP). To locate an ISP near you, look in a local directory or computer publication. Your ISP should provide you with the following information:

•User name (also called user ID)

•Password

•Access number (the number you call to connect to the server)

•Host name and/or domain name

•Domain Name Server (DNS) server address

If, besides the Web, you use the Internet for e-mail and newsgroups, your ISP should also provide you with the following information:

•E-mail or POP mail address

•POP server address

•Mail or SMTP address News or NNT server address
