5-2 Setting Up a Remote Connection
Preparing for Connection Setup
Before you set up a dial-up connection for an Internet Service Provider
(ISP) or Remote Access Server (RAS), and the associated email
properties, you need the following:
! Modem (your NEC MobilePro is equipped with an internal data/fax
modem)
! ISP or RAS account
! Configuration information from your I SP or network administrator
that may include some or all of the following:
— Dial-up telephone number
— TCP/IP settings
— Port settings
— User name and password, if required
You must create a new connection for each ISP or RAS account that you
want to establish. Once you have created a connection for an ISP, RAS,
etc., you can define an email account for each connection, if so desired.
Follow the instructions in the sections that follow, “Connecting to an
ISP,” “Connecting to a RAS,” and “Sending and Receiving Email,” to
create the desired connections.

modem.
1. Open the modem cover on the right side of the NEC MobilePro by
pullin down the top of the cover.
