Installing and configuring a modem
The HP Jornada 820 has a built-in 56K V.90 modem for
easy communication, so no installation is required. The
HPJornada 820e supports 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.) Follow
the manufacturer’s instructions included with the PC Card
modem to install and configure it for use with your
HPJornada.
Getting an account with an Internet service provider
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 infor-
mation you need to connect your HP Jornada to the Internet
and e-mail service. Please be sure to note the following:
• Your account user name.
• Your account password.
• Phone number of your ISP’s modem.
• IP and DNS addresses, if necessary.
• Your e-mail user name or ID. (This may be the same as
the user name for your ISP account.)
• Your e-mail password. (This may be the same as the
password for your ISP account.)
• The POP3 or IMAP4 host name of your ISP.
• The SMTP host name of your ISP (if required by your ISP).
