Whoops, I need help, please re connection message box
I thought my server was playing up the other day when I could only get local access instead of local and internet access, so I set up another way of connecting to the internet, but now don't know how to delete the connection and the pop-up box that appears randomly, out of the blue! I have a cable connection, screenshot of that attached.

Here's the notification I receive. I can't see it under connections in Control Panel, so really don't know how to stop it.

Thanks for any help.

Penny

p.s. It looks as though it a WAN Miniport (PPPOE) connection, and I don't need it.

I've just taken the tick out of "Dial a Connection" and hope this stops the Miniport notification from appearing.

Don't know whether this is of use. Do I need all of the boxes ticked?

Thanks.
