Re: Configuring an ADSL connexion

Your ISP would have supplied you with the numbers (if it's a static 
address). If you do not
know, then it's probably a dynamic address. If you do not have your own 
domain (if you are
<[email protected]>, it's going to be dynamic. Select DHCP

I don't use Windoze on the net, but I think you can check for an address 
by going to the
control panel, right click on (or select) internet connection (or 
network), click properties (or
view details for this account). It's been a while since I had Windows 
on-line, so I'm not real
sure.
Windoze could show an address though, even if it is DHCP. If the address 
is 172.xxx.xxx.xxx,
it's DHCP.
