5 In the Select a modem list, select your modem type.

dynamically-assigned address, tap Advanced and then the TCP/IP tab, and enter the
address. When finished, tap OK and then Next.
7 Enter the ISP phone number, and tap Next.

Connections. Tap and hold on the applicable dial-up settings and select Connect. Your
modem will dial-out and attempt to create the connection.
To create a wireless Ethernet connection to an ISP
1 Insert the wireless Ethernet card into your handheld. For instructions on inserting and
using the Ethernet card, see the documentation that came with the card.
2 The first time you insert the card, a notification will appear, asking you whether the
installed network card should be used to connect to The Internet or Work. Where
possible, the Service Set Identifier (SSID) will be determined automatically. Select The
Internet, then either accept all default settings by tapping OK (most home networks
will allow you to immediately get online without further configuration) or tap
Settings to configure the connection. Sometimes a network will require a WEP key. If
so, you will be prompted for one at this point.
3 Select the Advanced tab from the Connections Settings. Select the Network Card tab
to customize how each of your installed network card drivers connects. Highlight the
driver name of the card you wish to configure. Indicate whether My network card
connects to: The Internet. Tap on the name of the driver to receive advanced
options.
4 Configure the IP address settings in the IP Address tab.
5 Configure the DNS and WINS settings in the Name Servers tab.
You must remove then reinsert your network card for these settings to take effect.
6 Select the Network Card button from Connection Settings-Advanced to
configure your wireless networks. Networks that you have already configured are
preferred networks and are listed in the Wireless tab. You can select to connect to
only preferred networks or have your handheld search for and connect to any
available network whether it is preferred or not. Press Add New Settings... if you do
not see a network you'd like to connect to.
7In the General tab you can set the network name (also known as SSID); this is only
editable if you are creating a new wireless network profile else you are viewing a
preferred network and the SSID has already been established. Indicate whether this
network will connect you to The Internet. Finally, if this is a new network profile,
you can indicate whether this is a computer-to-computer network.
