    I'm presuming you want to connect via dialup to your current internet
provider.
    You'll need to load the Newton Internet Enabler software onto your
Newton.
    Then use Internet Setup to put in the information (domain name, user
name, password, etc.) required by your ISP.
    I don't know if a special modem file is required for the Global Village
modem you have. You could check UNNA (www.unna.org) to see if there is a
modem file for the model you have.
    You then use preferences to tell the Newton to use the modem to connect
to your ISP.
    Also, what did you want from the Internet?
    For email you'd need an email program _ SimpleMail is great and still
supported.
    Web browsing _ get Newts Cape (shareware and still supported).
