I am on ADSL always on. When I open network I can't find anything, also
when I check in system to see if my Ethernet card is working it is not even
shown, although it is all working and I am able to use the net. If I try
ipconfig, it shows all the information but I can't find it in windows so
that I can adjust the properties. I am using XP Pro. Can anyone help
please?
 
Why would you want to change properties if everything is working ??

You can find some of the settings by using Start ---> settings - network
connection and then right click on the connection icon.

Some of the settings can be found by using Start -->control panel --->System
Icon.
Then click on computer name

And the ones for the interface card itself by clicking on hardware -->
device manager and expanding network adapters.
 
The icon is likely to say something like

Local area connection (and it might provide the interface card below)
 
This is my point, I know what the icon might say, but there is no icon,
neither is there an entry in system/hardware for my card, yet still it
works!
