Note: Apple does not include a built in phone modem. We recommend purchasing Apple's external modem.

2. From the Network System Preference pane that appears, enter the Telephone Number (728-7300), username, and password (same as your email).
   
   
3. 
   
   
   
4. Close the Network Preferences pane.
   
5. To start the the dial-in process, click on the icon and select "Connect Internal modem " (even though your modem may be external).
