windows vista home basic on laptop connected via wired ethernet to broadband
modem router. Works fine, but when I'm finshed, it will not shut down. Shuts down okay when connected wirelessly. It's annoying! |

It's annoying! Try updating your ethernet network adapter drivers. Get them from the laptop mftr.'s website. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!

What won't shut down? Your PC or Internet?
If it's internet then unplug the ethernet cable, if it's power on PC then change power management settings. You should be able to access them via screen saver settings page.
