Network preferences
You can use your handheld’s Bluetooth technology and the software that is
included in the handheld operating system to connect with Internet service
providers (ISPs) or dial-in (remote access) servers using a mobile phone or optional
modem accessory. Your mobile phone must be equipped with one of the
following: an IR port, Bluetooth technology, or a serial cable that connects to your
handheld’s universal connector. You also need an ISP account or corporate remote
access account and a mobile phone carrier account that supports dial-up
connections, or a mobile phone carrier account with high-speed wireless data
network services.
You can also use your handheld’s Bluetooth technology and the software that is
included in the handheld operating system to connect with a LAN access point
To use the e-mail or web browser software included with your handheld, you must
create a configuration in Connection Preferences and then create Network
Preferences settings. See “Connection Preferences” earlier in this chapter for a
complete explanation of how to define Connection configurations that enable your
handheld to communicate with remote devices.
After you configure both the Connection and Network Preferences, you can
establish a PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) connection with your ISP or dial-in
server. You can do this either by using menu commands from the Network
Preferences screen or by using a third-party application.
NOTE
The Network Preferences settings give you the ability to connect to your ISP
or dial-in server with applications that support viewing the transmitted data. Visit the
web site www.palm.com
for information on third-party applications that take
advantage of TCP/IP.
