What do I need to connect my Latitude CPi to internet using dialup?

Question

I bought a Dell Latitude CPi on EBAY with no instructions and am not knowledgable about a laptop at all.  It is obviously an older laptop and I don't see where to connect a phone line to it.  I guess I have to buy something to connect it.  What do I need?  Please, can someone help me? Message Edited by Ginger_in_Va on 01-06-2005 09:38 PM

With a CPi,  you can use an external modem,  or a PCMCIA modem.  You probably want to buy a PCMCIA one so you can take it with you easily if you take your laptop on the road with you.

Hello Ginger, Get yourself a Xircom Realport modem or combo ethernet/modem pcmcia cards from Ebay, works great, no dongle required, looks good, fits on left side of computer. Jerry
