Set-up internet connection (No PPPoE) in Vista?
I upgrade yesterday from XP to Vista, but I have a problem to set-up the
internet connection. I can't set-up the connection because the only suggestion that Vista offers me is a connection with PPPoE (See http://tinyurl.com/37erh5. I want an internet broadband connection without PPPoE via my ADSL modem/router (Zyxel 2602). My ISP doesn't support PPPoE. Its not a network problem because my Linux computer attached on the same ADSL/router have a connection with internet and can reach the router via 192.168.1.254/. Vista however can't reach 192.168.1.254 and reports that there is a problem with my Zyxel. I upgrade yesterday the lan driver (3 com gigabyte LOM (3c940). Before the upgrade the NIC works well in XP.. How can I set-up a trivial internet connection in Vista? btw I can't find (yet) the command prompt in Vista :-(

Set-up internet connection (No PPPoE) in Vista?
What happens when you simply open your browser without setting up a connection? Command prompt can be obtained by clicking on an empty space on your desktop and right clicking while holding down your Shift button. You can also type in CMD in the search box from the Start menu. -- locoeng Vista Ultimate 32/64 bit dual boot Gigabyte EP35 DS3R XFX GeForce 8600GT Corsair 520HX G.Skill DDR II 800 X2 gigs Seagate 120GB (IDE) X2 WD 750 (SATA) Samsung SH203B SBO3 patched codeking Pioneer 215L patched MCSE NEC/Optiarc 7200S 1.06bt Liggy&Dee Lite-On 20A1L BL06 -FB FBL EOS EOHT 6-

Solved. - I put 2 drivers for the 3com gigabit LOM 3c940 (from Asus (Asus p4p800 deluxe motherboard) and driverguide.com) on my C disk. Then via the device manager/update driver software, Vista looks for the best fit. - Reboot the ADSL/router and my Vista PC makes a connection with internet automatically (finally :-)

- Reboot the ADSL/router and my Vista PC makes a connection with internet automatically That is what I assumed as that is how mine configured before I loaded any drivers and why I asked what you get when you simply open a browser. Anywho, glad you got it sorted and happy surfing.  -- locoeng Vista Ultimate 32/64 bit dual boot Gigabyte EP35 DS3R XFX GeForce 8600GT Corsair 520HX G.Skill DDR II 800 X2 gigs Seagate 120GB (IDE) X2 WD 750 (SATA) Samsung SH203B SBO3 patched codeking Pioneer 215L patched MCSE NEC/Optiarc 7200S 1.06bt Liggy&Dee Lite-On 20A1L BL06 -FB FBL EOS EOHT 6-

Set-up internet connection (No PPPoE) in Vista?
Hi
When you use a Modem/Router the PPPOE is done in the Router. The connection between computers they are connected to the Router and the Internet is via regular Ethernet Network and does not need PPPOE. Since your computer can not connect to the Router, it might be that its Network configuration is Not functional. This page was written for WinXP but the principle is the same for Vista try to use is a guide to debug your network settings. http://www.ezlan.net'debug,html Jack (MS, MVP-Networking) "Wouter Smaal" wrote in message ...
