Configuring the Network Dialog Box

Follow these steps to configure the Network dialog box:

1. Choose Start (on the Taskbar) > Settings > Control Panel.
2. Double-click the Network icon to open the Network dialog box. The Network dialog box should contain two items: Dial-Up Adapter and TCP/IP. If one of these items is missing you need to add it.
3. To add Dial-Up Adapter, click Add, choose Adapter, click Add, choose Microsoft from the list of manufacturers, and choose Dial-Up Adapter. Then click OK.
4. To add TCP/IP, click Add, choose Protocols, click ADD, choose Microsoft from the list of manufacturers, and then choose TCP/IP. Then click OK.
5. If this process adds additional components, select them and click Remove. If you have other items AND YOU ARE NOT ON A NETWORK, remove these items as well. If you are on a network and need to connect to the Internet both through the network and by dialing-up, leave the other items.
6. Leave the Network dialog box open for the next procedure.
