    from a variety of available PC Card modems∗, Bluetooth 
    devices, and LAN cards. (For more information about 
    compatible PC Card modems and other PC Card 
    communication devices, go to the HP Jornada Accessories page 
    on the HP Jornada Web site at www.hp.com/jornada
    .) 
     A PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) or SLIP (Serial Line 
    Internet Protocol) account—An Internet service provider 
    (ISP) will provide you with important information, such as a 
    user name, password, dial-up telephone number, server 
    names, and so on. 
     A dial-up connection set up on your HP Jornada—HP 
    dialup makes this step easy.  
     Access to a telephone line—You can connect to an analog 
    telephone line if your HP Jornada has a built-in modem. If you 
    use a PC card modem, check the manufacturer’s instructions 
    for telephone line compatibility.  
    If you use the HP Jornada internal modem, you must use an 
    analog telephone line to connect your modem. Connecting to a 
    digital telephone line can damage your modem. 
     
    Connecting to corporate e-mail and network from 
    off-site 
     
     
    Typical corporate LAN remote (off-site) connection 
    If you want dial-up access to corporate e-mail and Internet 
    services when you are offsite, then, in addition to the items 
    necessary for a personal internet connection listed above, you will 
    need:

     An account with your corporate network set for dialing 
    in to your network server—Your network administrator 
    can provide you with important information, such as a user 
    name, password, dial-up telephone number(s), server names, 
    and so on. 
    Connecting to corporate e-mail and network  
    resources on-site 
     
    Typical corporate LAN on-site network connection 
    If you want corporate e-mail and Internet service only (with no 
    access offsite), you will need: 
     An installed network interface card (NIC)—that is 
    properly configured with the IP address of your DNS and 
    WINS servers (your network administrator can give you this 
    information)  
     An account with your corporate network—including an 
    IP address for your HP Jornada, if it is not dynamically 
    assigned 
     A network (LAN) connection—a network cable with the 
    appropriate connector for your NIC 
      For detailed instructions on how to connect your HP Jornada 
    to a network via LAN cable, see Connecting directly to 
    corporate e-mail and network resources through a 
    network interface card (NIC) later in this chapter.

    Once you have decided what type of connection method you need, 
    you easily create and configure a Internet, intranet or network 
    connection by following the instructions in the following pages. 
    Since personal Internet and off-site corporate dialup connections 
    methods are quite similar they are addressed first, followed by  
    						
    							 Chapter 6 | Accessing e-mail | 89 
      
    instructions for creating an on-site connection to a local area 
    network (LAN). 
    Personal and corporate dialup connections 
    Installing and configuring a modem 
    If you purchased an HP Jornada with a built-in 56K V.90 modem, 
    it is already setup for easy communication. No installation is 
    required.  
    The 56Kbps modem complies with V90 ITU 56K specifications 
    and has a design capability of receiving data at up to 56Kbps 
    from a compatible service provider, and transmitting data at 
    up to 31.2Kbps. Public networks currently limit maximum 
    download speeds to about 53Kbps. Actual speeds depend upon 
    many factors and are often less than the maximum possible. 
     
     
    Note that the UK version of HP Jornada does not support certain 
    dialing properties. The HP Jornada built-in modem (on models 
    equipped with a built-in modem) does not detect a dial tone 
    before dialing. By default, the Wait for dial tone before dialing 
    box is checked. The modem will dial even if there is no dial tone. 
    It also does not support the pulse dial option. The modem dials 
    using tone dial only. By default, tone dialing is selected. 
    The HP Jornada supports a variety of available PC Card 
    modems
    *. (Check www.hp.com/jornada for more information on 
    compatible PC card modems.) Follow the manufacturer’s 
    instructions included with the PC Card modem to install and 
    configure it for use with your HP Jornada. 
    Getting an account with an Internet service provider  
    To access the Internet and e-mail, you will need to contact an ISP 
    to set up a PPP account. SLIP accounts are offered by some ISPs 
    instead of PPP accounts. Your HP Jornada supports the use of 
    SLIP as well as PPP.  
                                                                    
     *Modem purchased separately. Some Web sites/content may not be 
    available.

    Your ISP will be able to give you all the configuration information 
    you need to connect your HP Jornada to the Internet and e-mail 
    service. Be sure to note the following: 
      Your account user name. 
      Your account password. 
      Telephone number of your ISP modem. 
      IP and DNS addresses, if necessary (most dial-up accounts are 
    assigned addresses dynamically each time you connect). 
      Your e-mail user name or ID. (This may be the same as the 
    user name for your ISP account.) 
      Your e-mail password. (This may be the same as the password 
    for your ISP account.) 
      The POP3 or IMAP4 host name of your ISP.  
      The SMTP host name of your ISP (if required by your ISP). 
    Setting up a dial-up connection to your ISP 
    Use HP dialup to create a dial-up connection to the Internet or to 
    a corporate network and to configure e-mail and Web services. 
    After you have established an account with an ISP, you can set 
    up a connection on your HP Jornada and connect to the Internet 
    and your e-mail whenever you want. To make this configuration 
    process easier, use the HP Jornada dialup application. The HP 
    dialup Setup Wizard leads you through the process of 
    configuring your connections. 
    The first time you start HP dialup, the Setup Wizard leads you 
    step-by-step through the processes of creating and configuring: 
      a connection to your service provider 
     a dialing location 
     an e-mail service 
     a Web service. 
    The settings you create in HP dialup are used by several 
    programs, including Remote Networking, Inbox, and Internet 
    Explorer.

    							 Chapter 6 | Accessing e-mail | 93 
      
    Address section, and Server-assigned address under Name 
    Server Configuration. 
    If you selected an ISP from the list, the IP addresses will be 
    filled in automatically 
     
    If you are connecting to a corporate network, or your ISP 
    was not in the list, you will need to provide the IP 
    addresses. Contact your ISP or network administrator for more 
    information. Tap OK to return to the setup wizard. 
    You also have the option to choose software and IP header 
    compression options. Ask your ISP if these options are 
    recommended for your account. 
    If you have created one Service Provider using HP dialup, you 
    can create another by tapping the New button on the HP 
    dialup Service Provider Tab. Then, follow the Setup Wizard to 
    create a new ISP connection.
