What You Need to Connect to the Internet
If your machine is part of a local area network (LAN), then your connection to the
Internet will be via a server on the network. You will need to enter the
configuration details of your computer on the LAN. Ask your system administrator for help.
Otherwise, you will need a modem and telephone line. The following is a checklist for your modem
connection:
| Internet Service Provider Account
| |
| Contact an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to start an account with them.
They will provide you with all the dialing information that you
need to access the Internet. The number they provide you with is usually
charged at a local call rate. If you have E-mail also, you will need your E-mail
account details.
| |
| Contact your hardware supplier for information about supported Internet
Service Providers.
|
| Internet and Dialing Information - your ISP
should provide these details. These details are entered either when you install DR-WebSpyder or in the
Setup pages after installing DR-WebSpyder.
| |
| Refer to the section Setting Up DR-WebSpyder
For the First time to set up your connection to the Internet.
|
| Connection to a telephone line.
| |
| Connect your machine to a telephone line using an internal or external modem.

Note: When you are browsing the Internet, you will be
charged either by your Internet Service Provider, or the telephone company,
or both. Make sure you know how you are charged before connecting to
the Internet.
