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. Regards Mr.Mike Maltby "Mike M" ha scritto nel messaggio ... 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, -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Lando wrote: Many thanks . 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. |

I'm glad Steve W saw your message and replied to it. We've both learned something. :-) Best wishes, -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Lando wrote: Many thanks for your advice !
