ACCOUNT SETUP

Preparing to Set Up Access

To set up access to your Internet account, you need to provide the following types of information:

- Your name and company.
- Your account access phone number.
- Your account login and password.
- Your email login and password (if applicable).
- Your provider's mail and news server addresses (if applicable).
- Your provider's domain name and DNS server addresses.
- The location where you can publish your Web pages (if applicable).
- Your modem manufacturer and model.
- The phone number of the phone line at the location you are connecting from.
- Any special dialing settings specific to the location you are connecting from--to turn off Call Waiting, access an outside line, or use pulse dialing.

Depending on your Internet service provider, you might not need to enter all of this information--your Internet service provider might have already supplied Account Setup with some of it. Account Setup asks only for the information not supplied by your provider.

You can probably find the information that you need to provide in the forms given to you by your provider when you started your account. If you don't have the information you need, call your provider's technical support office.

If you aren't sure about what to enter into an Account Setup screen, click the Help button.
