Before you can connect to the Internet, you must sign up with an Internet service
provider (ISP). HP has made arrangements with leading ISPs to help you sign up for
Internet service using Easy Internet Sign-up (available on select models only).
Use Easy Internet Sign-up to sign up for a new or transfer an existing ISP account
(select ISPs only). The software programs for available ISPs are part of your PC. If
you decide to subscribe to high-speed broadband, cable or digital subscriber line
(DSL), contact your ISP for any specific software and hardware you may need.

services by temporarily connecting to the Internet. The PC uses either the PC
modem connected to an active telephone service line or an active broadband
(cable or DSL) connection.
NOTE: The folder called Online Services includes icons for accessing various
online services, but they may not be present in all countries/regions.
