Re: What Internet Connection Information is Needed During Initail Install of Vista? - Thanks

I'm glad I saw this post as I'm waiting for a new machine to arrive that will have Vista Home Premium installed. At the moment I'm using XP Home and I'm wired to my wireless router and the other machines connect via wireless.
I intend to continue with the wired connection on the new machine and this one will have a wireless card fitted to connect so it's good to know that hopefully, and I say that with tongue in cheek, the new machine will just connect.
I'm busy reading as much as I can about Vista while waiting for my machine to arrive <g>

Mike and Malke, thanks very much for your replies and information. My
computer/router connection will be wired only. Nice to know that Vista
will pickup the router/internet and make the necessary connection
settings.

Malke, no need for apology as you all provide a tremendous amount of help
for individuals on these newsgroups. As my old boss use to say, the only
people who never make an error - are those who either lie like h---, or
don't ever do anything worthwhile.

Thanks again, Sam.

You're a real sweetie, Sam. Thanks for the kind words and for forgiving me
so graciously.

Post back if you have any questions once you get the new machine and I
promise to read your posts thoroughly!

Malke
