Creating an Internet Connection

Sometimes connecting your computer to the Internet can be the most difficult part of getting started. The New Connection Wizard simplifies the process, whether you want to set up a new connection using an existing account or select an Internet service provider (ISP) to set up a new account. In either case, you will need to obtain connection information from your ISP or your system administrator.
