A long wait to connect

When I start my computer, XPSP2 w/fast ethernet, I sometimes must wait 10
minutes before getting a connection. Thgis is often displayed: "This
connection has limited or no connectivity. You might not be able to access
the Internet or some network resources." After I do connect, it's good for as
long as the computer is powered up. Is my machine at fault? Thanks,

See if David Browne's tip about eliminating autodial sites helps you.

BTW thanks also to Chris for posting a reminder about this tip.


Also I would be curious to know if the following command lists
anything for your (in a command window) and if you see your problem
sites there.

rasautou -s

Note: if the list is too big you could filter it with a pipeline e.g.

rasautou -s | find /i "sitename"

or capture it in a file and browse it more conventionally

rasautou -s >autodial.txt
notepad autodial.txt

etc.


Good luck
