(also known as Host Name or System Name)
For most users, type your account name or user name in this box. For example, if your main mail account is JerAB@ISP.com, then put JerAB in this box.
If your ISP has given you a specific Host name, then type it (for example, CCA7324-A).
For most users, you may leave this box blank, unless required by your ISP. You may type the domain name of your ISP. For example, if your ISP's mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.zzz, you would type xxx.yyy.zzz as the Domain Name.
If you have a Domain name given to you by your ISP, type it in this box. (For example, Earthlink Cable require a Host name of 'home' and Comcast supplies a Domain name.)
If you have a fixed (or static IP) address, your ISP will have provided you with the required information. Type the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP Address into the correct boxes.
For example:
The DNS server is used to look up site
addresses based on their names. Your ISP should have provided at least one DNS address.
Type the primary DNS address.
If your ISP gave you 2 DNS addresses, type the secondary DNS address. Otherwise, this may be left blank.
Note: If you get 'Address not found' errors when you go to a Web site, it is likely that your DNS servers aren't set up properly. You should contact your ISP to get the correct DNS server addresses.
