I have a notebook. At home, I have dialup. If I try to connect to the
Internet before I remember to plug in the phone, Vista fails--of course--but
then it stops working correctly. If I plug in the phone line, Vista continues
to try the original (software) connection and waits--and waits. Closing the
various windows does not help. Going to Control panel and telling it to
"disconnect" does not work.
My only option seems to be to restart the machine.
What am I missing?
