Connecting the modem to a phone line
Your computer comes with a built-in modem. To use the
modem, you must connect it to a standard voice-grade RJ11
telephone line.
NOTE: Due to FCC limitations, speeds of 53 kbps are the
maximum permissible rates during downloads. Actual data
transmission speeds will vary depending on line conditions.
1 Attach one end of a standard RJ11 telephone cable to the
modem port.
2 Plug the other end of the RJ11 telephone cable into the
modular jack of a standard voice-grade telephone line.
NOTE: For more detailed information regarding your computer’s
modem, visit Toshiba’s Web site at toshiba.com.
Connecting your computer to a network
You can connect your computer to a network remotely, using
the built-in modem and a dial-up connection. For specific
information about connecting to the local area network
(LAN) or wide area network (WAN), consult your network
administrator.
To use a dial-up connection, have your network administrator
configure your computer for the network and supply you with
the telephone number for the dial-up connection. To set up
the network connection, use the Dial-Up Networking Wizard:
1 Click Start and point to All Programs.
2 Point to Accessories, then to Communications.
3 Click Network Setup Wizard or Network
Connections.
