Host and Domain Names
Some ISPs use a specific host or domain name—like CCA7324-A or home. If you haven’t
been given specific information about host or domain names then use the following examples
as a guide:
• If your main e-mail account with your ISP is aaa@yyy.com, then use aaa as your host
name. (Your ISP might call this your account, user, host, computer or system name.)
• If your ISP’s mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.com, then use xxx.yyy.com as the domain name.

Domain name:
Login Name
If your ISP requires a login name and password (possibly because you have a PPPoE or PPPoA
account), fill in the following:
Login name: (may be your full e-mail address)
Password:
Service name: (if required by your ISP)
Note: The login name could be called a user name or account name by your ISP.
The login name is case sensitive. You must type it
exactly as given by your ISP. For
example, c_jones is a different login name than C_Jones or cjones.
Fixed (or static) IP address
If you have a static IP address through your ISP, fill in the following information:
Internet IP address:
Subnet mask:
Gateway IP address:
DNS server address information
If you were given specific Domain Name System (DNS) server addresses, fill in the following:
