How are you making the DSL connection? If you are using a hardware device,
router or modem, which handles the PPPoE, you won't get a status window on
the task bar. Not even with Windows XP; I know, I have a friend with
Windows XP connecting through a router.

OTOH, when I first set up my DSL connection, I used Enternet 300 on my
Windows ME computer; I had a status icon on the task bar. I lost that when
I moved the connection to a NAT router, and dumped the Enternet 300
program.

If you are connecting through a PPPoE connection on a hardware device, DO
NOT try to install a software PPPoE manager on the computer. It won't work,
and it will cause problems with the hardware device.
