If u configure the modem itself, there should be an option to reconnect automatically
U’re dialling everytime u’re connecting, so u’re in dialing mode . Whether u dial or the modem connects automatically, ADSL connections are always made in ppoe!
Regarding the modem configuration for auto dial, searched all over for the settings for ur modem, but zilch. I see u are posting doggedly on this topic and not getting a solution. What I don’t get is why are u not using the link I gave and trying a little self help
The TCP/IP settings for ur LAN connection will be the same for Vista and XP. As for ur modem being not listed, googled and couldn’t find the settings anywhere. What I meant by trying was, get the settings for the other modems listed and try to find and fill the approprate/ corresponding entries in ur modem. Also, as Party Monger said, back up the modem configuration files in case anything goes wrong. Ur modem should have the back up option in system or advanced tab
