7 Configure your data software

•INTRODUCTION

Before you can use your phone to send and receive data calls, you must configure your data software so that it uses your phone rather than your existing modem. You may consider creating a separate set of dialing properties to use when your phone is connected to your computer, rather than changing any existing settings.

The following pages are designed to help you configure some of the more popular applications for use with your Nokia phone.

Dial-up Networking

You may be using Microsoft’s Dial-up Networking feature to connect to your Internet service provider, or to make a remote connection to your corporate network (including dialing in to corporate E-mail server using programs such as Microsoft Mail, Microsoft Outlook, or Lotus cc:Mail).

Rather than altering the existing configurations you use when dialing with your existing modem, consider creating a new connection exclusively for use with your Nokia phone (as detailed below).

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

You need the phone number for your Internet service provider or for your company’s remote access server. When testing the new

connection, you also need your user name and password.
