Hi mate,

Good to know ur LW is back to normal!

Could u just specify step by step as to how u made tht new connection so tht now u are directly connected to the internet without having to dial through ur ISP's dialer!!

Maybe ur new connection still dials for internet in the background when ur PC boots !!

U too hav PPPOE connection, then there should be two connection icons in ur system tray i.e. LAN and ur internet connection icon, right? Do u mean to say tht after u made a new connection which directly connects u to the net, u hav only LAN icon in ur sys tray???

My language might be confussing but pls understand as I am also desperate to get my LW back to normal!!

Thanx!!
