CHAPTER 6: Traveling with Your Notebook
74
Packing your notebook
•
Remove all discs, express cards, peripheral
devices, and cables. Remember to pack those you
will need while traveling.
•
Pack your notebook securely into a briefcase or
hand-carried luggage, and keep it separate from
toiletries, liquids, and food. Do not pack it in
checked luggage.
•
Keep your notebook stable during travel. Secure
it to prevent it from sliding around in overhead
bins and car trunks.
Traveling by air
•
Do not check your notebook as luggage.
•
Charge the battery in case airport security asks
you to start your notebook.
•
Have your notebook hand-inspected or sent
through the X-ray scanner, but never carry it
through the metal detector.
•
Turn off you notebook for takeoff and landing.
•
Turn off all wireless devices while in the aircraft.
Dial-up modem
•
Take a telephone cord to connect the modem to
telephone jacks. If you are traveling
internationally, take telephone jack adapters or
an acoustic handset coupler.
•
Take a telephone line protector.
•
Take a telephone line tester to check for unsafe
lines, especially if you are traveling
internationally.
•
Take remote access information with you so you
can connect to your ISP while outside of your
usual calling area. A list of country dialing codes
may be especially useful if you are traveling
internationally.
