• 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 with your HP Jornada 680 or 690. Or, if you have the HP Jornada 680e
or 690e, you can connect to the telephone line supported by your PC
Card modem.
The HP Jornada 680 and 690 have a built-in 56K V.90 modem for easy
communication, so no installation is required. Note that the UK version of
the built-in modem does not support certain dialing properties. The built-in
modem on this model 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 680e and 690e support 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 manufacturer's instructions included with
the PC Card modem to install and configure it for use with your HP Jornada.
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.
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.
