Hi all
I have installed a wi-fi card on my laptop. tried to use
at a hot spot and found that a connection is made ok but
when i lauch explorer it only wants to use dial up
connection and dosn't seem to see the wireless
connection. So, how do i tell explorer that there is an
alternative to dial up connection and get it to see the wi-
fi connection?

best regards
ianiie
