Chapter 17 Setting Preferences for Your Handheld
182
After you configure both the Connection and Network Preferences, you can
establish a PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) connection with your ISP or dial-in server.
You can do this either by using menu commands from the Network Preferences
screen or by using a third-party application.
NOTE TCP/IP provides the ability to connect to your ISP or dial-in server with
applications that allow you to view the transmitted data. Visit the web site
www.palm.com
for information on third-party applications that take advantage of
TCP/IP.
Selecting a service
Use the Service setting to select the service template for your Internet Service
Provider or a dial-in server. Service templates are a set of ISP and dial-in server
configuration settings that you can create, save, and reuse.
To select a service:
1. Tap the Service pick list.
2. Tap the predefined service template you want to use.
Entering a user name
The User Name setting identifies the name you use when you log into your
Internet Service Provider or your dial-in server. Although this field can contain
multiple lines of text, only two lines appear onscreen.
