An Online/Offline CV> selection. I would appreciate any help that you would see CV> fit to give. My LAN is always connected to the Internet (well, 6 days a week). I have the choice of connecting to the Internet via the LAN, or by seperate modem connection (when the LAN connection to the Internet is down). If the LAN's connection to the internet is down, I cannot download emails. To connect via the LAN, I go to Options/Network&Admin and click "Local Area Network or manual connection". Windows will do the rest (as long as you are correctly connecting to the LAN, and the LAN is connected to the internet). To connect via modem, I can either use Windows' Dial-Up connection, and not change anything in TB - this works fine when the LAN is down. Or I can change the setting under Options/Network&Admin to Dial-Up Networking. If this is not clear, please ask again.
