Many thanks for your advice !
Mr.Winograd has solved my doubts with this reply :

That looks like good advice to me.
It doesn't remove the whole TCP/IP, and it doesn't remove an adapter.
It removes the un-needed TCP/IP protocol binding from the adapter that
connects to the broadband modem. That leaves the TCP/IP bindings for
other adapters in place, and it leaves the adapter and its PPPPOE
binding in place.

Lando,

There's nothing wrong with your English or understanding of the note you
posted. I can think of no reason why the TCP protocol should be removed
from your network adapter since the internet works using TCP/IP. However,
as I have already mentioned, I have never used a connection requiring
PPPOE so am not qualified to comment. May I suggest that you post your
query to the windowsme.networking newsgroup where hopefully Steve Winograd
MVP will see your post.

Regards,

May I ask your opinion about this note ? Is really asking to remove
TCP ( or I get this because of my bad English ....) ?
Regards.

IMPORTANT: Locate and select the TCP/IP-Adapter Name entry for the
network adapter connected to your broadband modem. If this network
adapter is dedicated to your broadband modem, simply click the Remove
button. If you also want to access other local machines through the
same network adapter, click the Configure button and assign a fixed
IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0). If you
do not take either of these steps, you will experience periodic
pauses while using this protocol, because Windows will periodically
halt the network adapter and try to acquire for an IP address for it,
which also makes the machine take significantly longer to boot up.
