I just got a new computer for my company with Windows Vista Business
installed. I am trying to connect to the internet but the only choices are wireless, broadband with user name and password and dialup. I have a active DSL connection that does not require a username and password. I have set up all my XP computers with no problem but this one has me puzzled. |

Because those should be the only ones that require explicit configuration
steps. If you're connecting directly to the DSL modem, plug up the Ethernet cable (or USB if you're using that instead) and it should work. (Note that if you're directly connected to the Internet with no home network, your network location should be "Public" when prompted.) If you have a network with those XP computers, connect to it via Ethernet or wireless. "GregBlakey" a écrit dans le message de ...

I just installed Vista Ultimate 64, and it did not connect to internet, but
it was on my LAN. When I tried to connect to internet it asked me for username and password, I've never used any password in any conection of windows millenium, or XP. It was always connected by ethernet and nothing more. I don't know why vista is asking me for user and pass. Is there any way to quit the user and pass? I don't want vista to ask me never again for that. (I'm spanish, so probably it's a bit difficult to understand me) "GregBlakey" wrote: I just got a new computer for my company with Windows Vista Business installed.
