Hi, Deborah:
Here is a list of Connectivity instructions for setting up your
email. Yes, you can use dial up, DSL, and wireless. Have fun
with this.
When setting up any new account information, do the following:
1. From the Main Menu, press E, S, D, A. You will see "entry
list of Directory of Email Accounts". Press Enter.
2. "Account Name" is the first field. Put anything here that
will help you identify it and press Enter.
3. "User Name" is the next field. Put the first part of your
e-mail address in, up to the "at" part. Press Enter.
4. "Password" is the next field. If your password includes
numbers, put them in lower case. Press Enter.
5. "Your name" is the next field, so put that in. Press Enter.
6. "Your e-mail address" is the next field, and the whole
e-mail address is needed. If there are numbers, lower case
numbers are required. Press Enter.
7. "pop server" add this entry and press Enter.
8. "Smtp server" put this in and press Enter.
9. "Smtp authentication required"? This is set to "no" but
most ISP's require them. Press Y for yes and press Enter.
10. Press dot 2-6 chord to add the record.
(Connectivity Side)
1. From the Main Menu, press Option, C, C.
2. "Entry list for connection configurations" is the first
field seen. Press Enter.
3. "Connection configuration name" is next, so write in
whatever you'll remember. You can name it "dial up" or "DSL",
since this is the type of connection. Press Enter.
4. "Device to use" is next. If you are using dial up, you can
just press Enter. However, if it is an ethernet card, press dots
3-4 chord until you see "ethernet network connection". You can
press Enter here. (note: If you are using DSL, you can skip down
to step 13).
5. If you are using dial up, add your phone number here and
press Enter.
6. If you are using dial up, you will be asked for your
"service user name". Once again, add this information.
7. "Password is next, if you have dial up.
8. "Software compression" is next, and is normally set to
"yes."
9. "Use IP header compression"? This is usually set to "yes".
10. "Log onto network"? This is usually "no", unless you are
using it in conjunction with your PC.
11. "Wait for dial tone"? Generally, this is set to yes, but
it is up to you.
12. "Additional modem configurations"? You should just be able
to press Enter.
13. "Obtain an IP address automatically"? This is generally
"yes", though your setting is "no". If that is the setting, just
press Y and press ENTER.
14. Generally, you can press dot 2-6 Chord to add the record,
unless you are required to use a "proxy server", or a "DNS
address."
Wireless
If you are using a wireless connection, do the following:
1. Put your wireless card in.
2. From Main Menu, press Options, C, W.
3. You will see "wireless card active; currently no."
4. Press Y for yes.
5. Space down to "scan for a network"?
6. Press Enter.
7. You will see "list of available connections."
8. Once you see it, press the Space bar to see a connection.
9. You will be placed into the "configuration items list." The
only thing you'll have to enter is your configuration name.
10. Press Enter. The SSID and all other settings should go
into their default values.
11. If you do not use WEP or other security, you should just
be able to save the configuration "as is", since the BN should
pick up these settings from the router.
12. Press dots 2-6 Chord to add the record.

I got my MPower very recently, and really want to get on the
Internet and do
email using it. My husband & I have DSL instead of a dial-up
service. This
may be a dumb question, but can you get on the Internet and use
the Braille
Note for email using DSL or do you have to have a dial-up
account. Either
way, I would like to get Specific directions for doing this.
Thanks!!!

Hi Cynthia,Yes, you can get the mpower online without having to
have your
home computer online. YOu would need thenumber for dial up as
well as
your pop and smtp servers. You need your user name and password
and I
think that's it.
Hope this helps.

These may sound silly but...
Is braille note MPower compatible with Windows based games such
as those from Kitchens Inc.?
For those of you using the MPower with the internet, do you have
to have your computer set up for internet prior to setting up
the braille
note for internet, or can you just use the parameters (number to
dial,
servers, etc.) to set up your braille note without connecting
your
computer.
Um, let me see if I can clarify. I'll want the MPower online, but
not my home computer. Is that possible?
