Accessing Personal E-Mail And The Internet - HP 820 User Manual

Accessing personal e-mail and the Internet

If you want e-mail and Internet service only (with no
access to a company network), you will need:
•
An installed modem—If you have the HP Jornada 820,
you have an internal modem so you are ready to go. If you
have the HP Jornada 820e, you can choose from 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/handheld.)
•
A PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) or SLIP (Serial
Line Internet Protocol) account—An Internet service
provider (ISP) will provide you with important informa-
tion, such as a user name, password, dial-up phone
number, server names, and so on.
•
A dial-up connection set up on your HP Jornada—
This step is made easier with the HP Jornada dialup
application.
•
Access to a phone line—You can connect to an analog
phone line with your HP Jornada 820. Or, connect to the
type of phone line supported by the PC Card modem you
install in the HP Jornada 820e.
If you use the HP Jornada 820, you must use an analog phone line to connect your
modem; connecting to a digital phone line can damage your modem.
