LAN connection question...

[RJK]

Hello all you that know all about LAN's

Seeing as I stumbled through getting a little Linksys adsl modem router
installed, I've been having a dig around looking to see what's what, which
of course raises several questions.

Looking at the properties for the LAN connection, specifically the little
window titled "This connection uses the following terms."
Obviously I leave the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" in there but, do I need
the following three ? :-

Client for Microsoft networks
File and Printer sharing for Microsoft Networks
QoS Packet Scheduler

I'm not networking any computers together so I was tempted to remove them
but, of course I don't want everything to collapse !

TIA

regards, Richard
