how do i create a vpn connection with windows7.it tells me thati needto be already connected to the internet inorder to make the connection it makes no sense thet u needto be connectedif u want to connect.tws a bit urgent..

Typically, you create a VPN connection with a network that is accessible via the Internet and is not part of your local network. It is possible to create a VPN connection to a VPN server that is on your local network, but that really isn't practical. I've done that only for testing purposes.Can you give more details as to exactly what you are trying to accomplish? Describe how you imagine the vpn connection would work and maybe we can help you set it up.

This will help with the explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network. You must have an existing connection to make a virtual connection. Hence the name.Here is another link that may provide a clearer description: http://computer.howstuffworks.com/vpn.htm.

i have a modem and i want to connect to the internet with it. but my computer dont go on the net with it. i'm now connecting through a wireless connectionof my nieghbor and itws workung great, so i doct think that there is a problem with the computor.i want toconnect with my own modem. i'm writing to u because my internet supllyer dont support windows 7. i'm from israel.thx very much:)

first, thx.well, i can connect with my neighbor's wireless connection( like now), but i wanna connect through my own modem, and my internet supplyer don't support windows 7. can i conncet with it?

Hi, I suspect that the modem is not compatible with Windows 7 beta. If the modem does not work, and you do not have router to dial to Internet instead, the computer could not communicate with any resources from Internet. Therefore, the VPN connection that need to be connected via the Internet connection cannot be used. Arthur Xie - MSFT
