Connecting to the Internet - 2

CONNECTING TO THE INTERNET

This chapter includes basic information on types of connections, and

getting connected to the Internet. For detailed information, please

refer to Network connections on page 88.

Connecting with a cable

Built-in network feature

The built-in network feature makes it easy for you to connect your

computer to the Internet using a cable.

But first, an Internet Service Provider (ISP) -- usually a phone or cable

company -- will have to go to your home or office to set up Internet

service. The ISP will install a small box, called a router, that will allow

you to connect to the Internet.

Once your router is set up, all you have to do is plug one end of a

network cable into the network port on your computer, and the other

end into a port on your router. (Refer to the image below.) Then, you'll

be ready to get online.
