3 Click Connect to the Internet.

providers (ISPs).
• If you have already obtained setup information from your ISP but you did not receive a setup CD,
click Set up my connection manually.
• If you have a CD, click Use the CD I got from an ISP.
5 Click Next.
If you selected Set up my connection manually, continue to step 6. Otherwise, follow the instructions

If you are having problems connecting to the Internet, see "E-Mail, Modem, and Internet Problems" on

have a service outage. Contact your ISP to check the service status, or try connecting again later.
