Noodles Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 My ADSL is down and I need to upload some files, so I went to and internet cafe here, which does high speed broadband. I put the LAN lead in and it said I was connected but when I went to load a web page it kept bringing my dial up adsl connection box for home. I could not view anything. Is there a procedure for using this kind of network. I have never used LAN before so sorry for the dumb question. IF I need to set anything up, can you explain what I have to do. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Connect your pc to the LAN and start up Ok- open Internet Explorer - go to Tools - Internet options Then from the window that opens up select the Menu Tab "Connections" About half way down that window will be some check boxes, put a check in the option "Dial whenever a network connection is not present" then click Apply and OK. Close Internet Explorer and then open it again. Type in an address and you will find that the page will open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
