Creating an Ethernet Connection to an ISP
1 You do not need to create a new connection on your 700 Series Com-
puter. Instead, you must purchase a dock to enable on-board Ethernet
or purchase a CompactFlash Ethernet card that is compatible with your
700 Series Computer.
2 Obtain the following information from your ISP:
S User name
S Password
S Domain name
3 Insert the Ethernet card into your 700 Series Computer. For instruc-
tions on inserting and using the Ethernet card, see the owner’ s manual.
If using an on-board Ethernet, place your 700 Series Computer in a dock,
tap Start → Today, then look in the System Tray for the Ethernet icon
(shown left). If not there, then tap the antenna icon for the NDISTRAY
pop-up menu and select Built-in Ethernet from the menu.
4 The first time you insert the card, Network Settings will appear
automatically so that you can configure the Ethernet card. Most
networks use DHCP, so you should not have to change these settings
unless your network administrator instructs you to do so. Tap OK.(Ifit
does not appear or to change settings later, tap Start → Settings → the
Connections tab → Network, tap the adapter you want to change, and
then tap Properties.)
S If using an on-board Ethernet, then select Start → Settings → the
Connections tab → Network Adapters. Select “NE2000 Compatible
Ethernet Driver” from the list of adapters installed, then tap Proper-
ties to configure the Ethernet driver.
