| 1123918 | 2010-08-24 05:31:00 | Am now going to have another crack at this! Am at the Internet Connection Wizard – it is asking for the proxy to use – what do I put in there? Also Port - ? Thanks Cancel the wizard!....do you have a network cable plugged in? What provides the internet?, a router?, it should get all IP settings from the router! |

Thanks If you bring up a dos command box and type ipconfig /all, this should show you the IP addressing provided by the router.....It will show the gateway to the internet thru the router...that is all you need. Under internet options and connections, simply select LAN! |
