I recently had a problem with my wifi card, and so I hooked up my old ethernet cable until I could get a new one. Always before my computer would auto-detect and connect when plugged in. That didn't happen this time so I set up a broadband connection by hand. Now that I've got my wifi working again, I'd like to delete this connection. However, while I can find options for removing wireless connections, I can't find one for deleting an unused broadband connection. Can anyone help me?
