ADSL via Network Card : Win2k- Installation / Configuration of the ADSL software (win2000)
Once you have install the network card and connected to the ADSL-modem, you are
ready to install the ADSL connection software (very similar to Windows95/98/ME) :
You may have a different software, but the basics should be
similar:
 |
My Internet provider is
using "EnterNet" |
 |
no questions asked,
just a restart is required |
After the restart, the Properties of "My
Network Places" will show an additional
Connection,
which is indicated as "inactive" with the red cross ,
there could also be a similar icon in your
taskbar :

 |
For a better identification of
the
network connections, I suggest
to rename this connection to a
name similar to the installed
adapter, in my example:
Enternet P.P.P.o.E Adapter::

You need also to display the
"Properties" of this connection
|

To prevent access from the Internet to your
system, un-check "File
and Printer Sharing".
There is no need to make any change to the TCP/IP protocol, since
you will receive all required
TCP/IP parameters on establishing the ADSL-connection from the DHCP-server of your Internet
provider.
You are ready to
configure your ADSL connection.
