Please log in for more thread options Thanks for the prompt response. I would appreciate more detailed information
regarding your response.
When I go to "Set Up Internet Connection" in Media Center I am asked if my
connection is "always on" and I select "No". I am then asked to "Select
Connection" and the only selection shown is "MSN" so I select that and am
then asked to enter my password. Where should I go to "check the settings of
dial-up connection for Media Center download"?
You suggested if unsuccessful I look at the event log. What am I looking for
on the log and what would I do with the information?
Thanks again.
