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:
