74 Appendix C Connecting to the Internet

Dial-Up Connection

A dial-up modem is the most common way to connect to the Internet. Your modem

uses a method called Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) to connect to an ISP.

Make sure your modem is plugged into a phone line and you have the information

from your ISP available (see page 71).

To set up Network preferences for the internal modem port:

1 Choose Apple (K) > System Preferences from the menu bar.

2 Click Network.

3 Choose Network Port Configurations from the Show pop-up menu and select the On

checkbox next to Internal Modem.

4 Drag Internal Modem to the top of the Port Configurations list to make it the preferred,

or primary, network interface.
