This article describes how to create a Dial-Up Networking connection on a
Handheld PC (H/PC).
To create a Dial-Up Networking connection on an H/PC, follow these steps:
- Tap Start, tap Programs, tap Communications, and then tap
Remote Networking.
- Double-tap Make New Connection.
- In the "Type a name for the connection" box, type a name for the
connection.
- Tap Dial-Up Connection, and then tap Next.
- In the Select A Modem box, tap your modem.
NOTE: If you are creating a Dial-Up Networking connection for an
external modem, tap Hayes Compatible On COM1.
- Tap Configure, choose the appropriate settings on the Port Settings
and Call Options tabs, and then click OK. If you are unsure of the
appropriate settings and options for your modem, please see your modem's
documentation or contact the modem manufacturer for information.
- If you are connecting to a computer on a network, tap TCP/IP Settings,
configure the TCP/IP settings, and then tap OK. If you do not know the
appropriate TCP/IP settings for your H/PC, please contact your network
administrator. If you are connecting to a desktop computer running
Windows that is not on a network, tap TCP/IP Settings, tap the
Server-Assigned IP Address box to clear it, type "192.168.55.100"
(without quotation marks) in the IP Address box, and then tap OK.
- Tap Next.
- Type the telephone number you want to call using this Dial-Up Networking
connection.
- If the call is a long distance call, tap the Force Long Distance
check box to select it. If the call is a local call, tap the Force
Local check box to select it.
- Tap Finish.
