Hello, when I try to use my broadband connection it will ask me to login and which windows XP never did (I have just installed 7 last night) and I belive my ISP never gave me any of that information. And I am currently using a wireless connection right now.
No it is a modem it should be "plug and play" like with the enthernet cable. But it askes me to log in to my account, which I never got one. And I like said, XP never asked for that.
You need a network adapter to connect a computer to a network. You can disconnect your computer from a network by disabling your network adapter, and you can sometimes solve connection problems by disabling and then re-enabling the adapter.
Right-click the network adapter, and then do one of the following:
To disable the network adapter, click Disable. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
To enable the network adapter, click Enable. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
The network adapter menu
If you disable the adapter, you have to enable it again to connect to a network. Note
Your computer might have more than one network adapter. Each adapter is listed next to the name of the network connection that uses it. Make sure that you select the correct adapter.
