LAN Port

Your unit may include the optional mini-PCI LAN (Local Area Network) card. If so, you will be able to use this port to connect to a network or a high-speed (e.g. DSL or cable) Internet connection.

Windows Me

Windows Me is designed to allow for easy networking setup for a home network. If you have a network to which you want to connect, you can use a standard network cable with a RJ-45 jack to connect your WinBook X Series notebook to that network. Your system should already be set up with the appropriate software for the network, but you might need to make adjustments. You can check the Network software setup by double-clicking on the Network icon in the Control Panel (Figure 4.20) or by right-clicking on the My Network Places icon and selecting Properties from the pop-up menu.

WinBook Technical Support does not provide support for networking functions (other than hard-

ware problems). Please see your Network Administrator for all networking questions.
