    You could create a shortcut to your connection in the Startup folder of your start menu.

    1) right click on your connection > create shortcut - desktop? yes.

    2) open explorer (right click on the start button - explore)

    3) Goto - XP > Documents and Settings > Find your name > start menu > programs > start up.

    4) put the short cut created in (1) here (right click on the shortcut - cut - paste it into the startup folder.

    Sorry, if this is overly simplified. I&#39;m assuming you have a basic knowledge of windows.

    I know that there is an "auto-dial" feature available somewhere on modem properties, however, I do not recall how to access it or if the feature is available for broadbandwidth connections.

    Use your "help" feature and plug in the keywords "auto dial" to access your systems help files and/or the microsoft help database.
