Connecting your computer to a network

You can connect your computer to a network to increase its capabilities and functionality using one of its communication ports.

Accessing a network

To access a network:

❖At the office, connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 jack on your computer. For specific information about connecting to the network, consult your network administrator. Many hotels, airports, and offices offer Wi-Fi®access. If your computer has Wi-Fi®, ask them for help when connecting to their Wi-Fi®network.

❖While you are at home or traveling, you need a dial-up connection. Ask your network administrator for the telephone number of the network.
