Can I copy/clone/duplicate the network connection settings from an existing account?

K

Kevin McNeal

I have got a computer with an existing and successful running network connection.
The dialup seems to be automatic through LAN cable direct to the Internet provider WITHOUT
router in between.

Is there a way to copy/clone/duplicate all these settings (IP provider, password, DNS IPs, ....)
for backup purposes or to use it on a second computer (e.g. notebook)?

This backup can be done by export into *.ini file or export of Registry keys or whatever.
Is this possible at all?

Look into the NETSH command...

Hi
If you want to use a second computer with the same Internet connection you
need a Network Device called Cable/DSL Router and the two computers have to
be network to it.
This page described how to set wired and wireless computers (can be few
wired, and or, few wireless in any combination).
