For a fee, online services give you access to the Internet,
e-mail, the World Wide Web, travel information, news re-
ports, and more, depending on the service selected. Some
online services give you a free trial period.
NOTE
It is strongly recommended that you install the
modem card in your NEC Versa prior to running the

program, it recognizes your modem information. If
you run the setup program without an installed
modem, you will have to manually enter the modem
information the first time you use the online service.

phone company. You can also use an external modem
connected to the serial port.
