windows server 2008: connecting to the internet
I have been having a terrible time trying to connect to the Internet with windows server 2008. I am trying to connect via Ethernet. I have used the wizards to go step by step, but it will not connect. Incorrect ISP username/password could be the issue. How do I know what these are? and will it tell me if they have been entered incorrectly? A second thing is that the error message says something about installing a pppoe port. It says this can be done through the network connections folder. But I cannot find that anywhere in that folder. Thanks, best regards J&H T
