The ISP server telephone number which you entered in step 17 of “To set up a
Remote Networking Connection”, is dialed according to Dialing Patterns and
Dialing Locations. You may wish to set up several dialing locations if the num-
bers you need to dial to access an external line or dial a long distance number can
change. For example, at work you may need to dial a 9 to access an external line.

Most modems will not work with digital telephone lines connected to a private
exchange in your workplace. Generally, a telephone line that works with a fax
machine will work with your HP 600 Series Palmtop PC. Note that digital phone
lines may cause damage to your modem.
