Hi There

This is my first post and i'm already after some help, I'm a bit on the slow errr side with PCs so here is the senario : I arrive home boot up the PC let it settle (anti virus likes to settle down) on my desktop is my Broadband connect Icon, I click and my connection box pops up, I click connect, it tells me it is connecting, then verifying user...great and soon the two monitor symbols on lower task bar tell me I'm connected...all is well BUT if I disconnect from the broadband later IT WILL NOT RECONNECT I have to start up my PC all over again to re connect...it's bugging me..can anyone help

Hi Wickedwitch, welcome to the PC Help Forum.

Who is your internet through? Broadband connections are supposed to be 'always connected'...

I have my broadband with Bulldog but I don't leave it connected due to being away with work all week and the PC gets a bit too warm

Hi wickedwitch,
Do you have your broadband running through a ADSL modem that Bulldog sent you, not through a router etc? You modem should be a little box like think with lights on and shoud connect to your PC by usb. What type of error is coming up when you try to reconnect, or does it just refuse to do so. Gahar means when you have you broadband connection through a network, it is always on, but by the sounds of it your running it through a router.
Good Luck anyway

Hi Auron11
Yes it is done through a ADSL modem and that is working fine the message when it fails is i think failed to connect to remote computer.
Thanks for reply

No probs wickedwitch!
Is the modem turning off and disconnecting from the usb port by it self. For myself i have a icon in the taskbar that tells me what the connection to the modem is like eg red,yellow, green. have u got anything like this.
