Connecting to a Network
Although your computer is designed to be carried around on your
travels, there may be times that you want to tap into your com-
pany's network. This section gives tips on how to connect your
computer to an existing network.
Since most of the details in connecting to a network depend upon
the network operating system your company uses and the type of
cabling or wireless system installed, this section gives only a brief
overview specific to your Satellite 200 Series computer. Talk to
your network administrator for assistance in getting up and
running on your network.
What Do I Need to Connect to a Network?
Before you can connect to a network, you need to purchase a net-
work adapter card. These come in two forms that will work with
your computer:
❖
PCMCIA-compatible PC network adapter card
❖
Parallel network adapter
The PC Card runs faster, but takes up one of your PC Card slots.
The parallel adapter leaves more space for PC Cards and can be
connected so that you can still use a parallel printer.
