Hello
My ISP needs a logon (at least on the computer running winXP does), and
when I connect to the router (via wire) I get connected to the network
(I get bytes sent and recieved), but I can't get online. And as I said
the PPPOE connection wizard worked a month ago (and it required a
password) and it rebbeled since the connection icon (to my ISP)
mistiriously wanished douring one of the Vista crashes

. Anyways I am
geting a wireless router (for I have two computers in the household),
BUT the isue remains. Why the hell the WIZARD doesn't work. It should
create a connection even if my LAN cable was unpluged.I just hate system
glitches like this! So if you have any other ideas I will be thankful, I
will be waiting for SP2 or maybe even win7.
