To create a modem connection to a network:
1 Get the following information from your network administrator: dial-up
access telephone number, user name, password, domain name, and
TCP/IP settings.
2 If your device does not have a built-in modem, install a modem card.
3 Tap
and then Settings. In the Connections tab, tap Connections.
Under The Internet settings, select Internet Settings and tap Modify.
4 In the Modem tab, tap New.
5 Enter a name for the connection, such as “Company Connection.”
6 In the Select a modem list, select your modem type. If your modem
type does not appear, try reinserting the modem card. If you are using
an external modem that is connected to your device with a cable,
select Hayes Compatible on COM1.
7 You should not need to change any settings in Advanced. Most
servers now use a dynamically assigned address. If the server you are
connecting to does not use a dynamically assigned address, tap
Advanced and then the TCP/IP tab and enter the address. When
finished, tap OK and then Next.
8 Enter the access phone number, and tap Next.
9 Select other desired options, and tap Finish.
10 In the Dialing Locations tab, specify your current location and phone
type (most phone lines are tone). These settings will apply to all
connections you create.
To start the connection, simply start using one of the following programs.
Your device will automatically begin connecting. Once connected, you
can:
■ Send and receive e-mail messages by using Inbox. Before you can
use Inbox, you need to provide the information it needs to
communicate with the e-mail server. For specific instructions, see
“Connect Directly to an E-mail Server,” later in this chapter.
■ Visit Internet or intranet Web or WAP pages by using Pocket Internet
Explorer.
■ Send and receive instant messages with MSN Messenger. For more
information, see “MSN Messenger” in Chapter 5.
■ Synchronize. For more information, see ActiveSync Help on the
computer.
