Connecting through an Ethernet card
To create an Ethernet connection to a network:

you must purchase and configure an Ethernet card that is compatible
with your device.
2. Obtain the following information from your network administrator: user
name, password, and domain name.
3. Insert the Ethernet card into your device. For instructions on inserting
and using the Ethernet card, see the owners manual for the card.
4. The first time you insert the card, Network Settings will appear
automatically so that you can configure the Ethernet card. Most
networks use DHCP, so you should not have to change these settings
unless your network administrator instructs you to do so. Tap OK.
If it does not appear, or to change the settings later, tap
, then tap
Settings. In the Connections tab, tap Network, tap the adapter that
you want to change, then tap Properties.
5. Connect the Ethernet card to the network using a network cable. For
information, see your owners manual.
