6 Getting Connected
To take full advantage of your Pocket PC, you will want to get connected. This
chapter tells you how you can get your Pocket PC connected to the Internet or
corporate network through a variety of ways including modem, network card,
and wireless network. It also describes Internet Explorer for Web browsing.
6.1 Connection Settings
Your Pocket PC has two groups of connection settings: “My ISP” and “My
Work Network.” My ISP settings are used to connect to the Internet, and My
Work Network settings can be used to connect to any private network, such as a
corporate network you use at work.
Connections can be made using a modem, wireless network, or network
(Ethernet) card.
After the connections, you can browse the Internet or intranet, send and receive
e-mail and instant messages, and synchronize information using ActiveSync.
Modem Connection
With a modem, you can dial in to your ISP or corporate network. Before
creating the connection, you need to:
Have a modem (IR or SD IO). (For installation information, see the
documentation supplied with the product.)
Obtain the following information from your ISP or network administrator:
server phone number, user name, password, domain name and TCP/IP
settings.
