Using an Internet service provider (ISP)

Before you can connect to the Internet, you must establish an ISP

account. Contact a local ISP to purchase Internet service and a modem.

The ISP will help set up the modem, install a network cable to connect

your wireless computer to the modem, and test the Internet service.

NOTE:

Your ISP will give you a user ID and password to access the

Internet. Record this information and store it in a safe place.

The following features will help you set up a new Internet account or

configure the computer to use an existing account:

Internet account or configure the computer to use an existing

account, double-click an icon, and then follow the on-screen

instructions.

Windows Connect to the Internet Wizard

—You can use the

Windows Connect to the Internet Wizard to connect to the Internet in

any of these situations:

You already have an account with an ISP.

You do not have an Internet account and want to select an ISP

from the list provided within the wizard. (The list of ISP providers

is not available in all regions.)

You have selected an unlisted ISP, and the ISP has provided

you with information such as a specific IP address and POP3

and SMTP settings.
