How to auto make a connection?

[Eric]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to automatically make a connection?
once IE8 is starting up. I am using ADSL model for connection
under XP with SP3 and IE8
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Sure. You need to configure your IE8 by going to:

Tools, Internet Options. Now click on Connections tab
Now select "Dial whenever a network connection is not present." This is
just a radio button you need to click on.

This will launch your dialer and make the necessary connections. If you
are on broadband then you need to select "Never Dial a Connection".

Hi
You are better of using a Cable/DSL Router and keeping your connection alive
and safe through hardware.
