My computer keeps trying to dial up a connection by default instead of using
my cable connection... how do I change this ? I know I can disable the dial up adapter, but why did it do it in the first place? Shuldn't the cable connex be the first choice? |

I have this same issue, with Vista Ultimate, and the IE connections tab does not remember the "Never dial a connection" selection. "Robert L. (MS-MVP)" wrote: Open IE.
