3. Tap the Speed pick list and select the appropriate speed.
4. Enter the initialization string supplied by the documentation for
the modem attached to your mobile phone, if necessary.
5. Tap OK, and then tap OK again to save the configuration.
After you create the configuration, you need to set up the HotSync
Manager of your Palm Desktop software for IBM WorkPad and the
HotSync application of your PC companion to perform a modem
HotSync operation.
Network preferences and TCP/IP
software
The Network Preferences settings enable you to use the TCP/IP
software that is included in the PC companion operating system. You
can use the TCP/IP software to connect with Internet Service
Providers (ISPs) or dial-in (remote access) servers. Because the TCP/
IP software is a feature of the operating system, you configure all
parameters relating to it from the Preferences application.
To use TCP/IP, you must create a configuration in Connection
Preferences and then create Network Preferences settings.
Note:
The Connection Preferences screen enables you to define
several ways that your PC companion can use the a modem to
communicate with remote devices. For example, you can
communicate with your ISP server, or with your computer if
you are away on travel. See “Connection preferences” earlier
in this chapter for a complete explanation on how to create
modem configurations.
