I have a Zyxel USB modem, at them moment I click on the dial up to connect - is there a way I can do this automatically? say when I turn the machine on?
To have Windows connect automatically whenever the connection is needed, first right-click the connection icon and select Set as Default Connection. Then, go to Control Panel [Network and Internet Connections] Internet Options Connections tab and click "Always dial my default connection."
To have Windows connect automatically when you first start your computer, place a shortcut to the connection in your Startup folder. You'll also need to make sure that the "Prompt for name and password, certificate, etc." option is turned off as just described.
Rare said:I have a router, but when I turn my PC off, I turn the power off to the router on the multi plug sockets.
Will this damage my router?
