Adding a DNS number
If your ISP or dial-in server requires a DNS number and you did not enter that information in the
Network Preferences screen, it will appear that you successfully logged into your network. When
you try to use an application or look up information, however, the connection fails. If this occurs,
try adding a DNS number. Ask your ISP or your System Administrator for the correct Primary and
Secondary DNS IP numbers.
Owner Preferences
The Owner Preferences screen enables you to record a name, company name, phone number, or
any other information that you want to associate with your communicator.
If you use the Security application to turn off and lock your communicator with a password,
information that you put in the Owner Preferences displays the next time you turn on your
communicator.
To enter the Owner Preferences:
■ Enter the text that you want to associate with your communicator in the Owner Preferences
screen. If you enter more text than can fit on one screen, a scroll bar automatically appears
on the right side of the screen.
If you assign a password with the Security application, the information in the Owner Preferences
screen cannot be changed. In this case, an Unlock button appears at the bottom of the screen.
To unlock the Owner Preferences screen:
1. Tap Unlock.
2. Enter the password that you defined in the Security application.
3. Hold Option and press Return to finish.
