2 Questions about network connection

[waikiki_joe]

Hi

I have a 3G USB modem which works fine in general.

The problem is that everytime i start windows, i have to manually go to the network panel and right-click the connection to "connect", because it doesn't start automatically.

The connection shows in network connections window as "dial-up" - "Vodafone mobile connect".

I have two questions about this connection profile:

1. How can i configure it to be automatically connected when windows starts up?

2. Where is this profile stored in windows? I'd like to study the connection settings to see that the DNS, APN and other settings are correct. This is to be sure i don't get a huge phone bill if the device decides to use wrong settings.

Thanks very much for your help,
Joe

1- What OS do you have?

 

[waikiki_joe]

Windows XP, in the future might be Vista

If you have suggestions for both, i'd really appreciate it.

When you write the user and the password for the connection, check "connect automatic"....in the night I explain you better, in this moment I'm in my job, the network connection is different and I can't remember all the steps.

Is the same for both.
