Configuring the network

Please remember:
Make sure that the Use Windows to configure the settings function is deactivated.
This can be done as follows:
ì
Click on Start – Settings – Control panel – Network connections –
LAN or high-speed Internet.
A window opens showing the properties of this connection.
In some versions of Windows XP you open this window by right-clicking the mouse
on the properties menu item.
ì
On the General tab, click on the Properties button.
On the Wireless networks tab, deactivate the option Use Windows to configure
the settings.
Configuring the network in this case means selecting Internet connection as the con-
nection method. You can do this with the network wizard.
ì
Click on Start – Control Panel.
ì
Open the Network connections screen (by double clicking or by using the right
mouse key).
ì
Under Pick a task select the option Set up or change your home or small office
network.
The network installation wizard is started.
ì
Skip the welcome screen and the checklist by clicking twice on Next.
