98 | HP Jornada 680/680e Users Guide A dial-up connection set up on your HP Jornada HP dialup makes this step easy. Access to a telephone lineYou can connect to an analog telephone line with your HP Jornada 680. Or, connect to the telephone line supported by your PC Card modem if you have the HP Jornada 680e. If you use the HP Jornada 680, you must use an analog telephone line to connect your modem. Connecting to a digital telephone line can damage your modem. Installing and configuring a modem The HP Jornada 680 has a built-in 56K V.90 modem for easy communication, so no installation is required. The HP Jornada 680e supports a variety of available PC Card modems. (For more information about compatible PC Card modems, go to the HP Jornada Accessories page on the Hewlett-Packard Web site at www.hp.com/jornada.) Follow the manufacturers instructions included with the PC Card modem to install and configure it for use with your HP Jornada. Establishing a network dial-up account Before you can log on to your network using a modem, you must establish a network account with your network administrator. Most likely, you will dial in to a server that has a modem installed to receive your call. The information you need for this connection is similar to the information needed to connect to the Internet through an ISP: Your account user name. Your account password. Telephone number of the network server modem. IP, DNS, and WINS addresses, if necessary. Your e-mail user name or ID. (This may be the same as your network user name.)
