Synopsis

Control Panel → [Network and Internet Connections] → Network Connections → New Connection Wizard (or "Create a new connection")

Start → All Programs → Accessories → Communications → Connection Wizard

The New Connection Wizard will guide you through the process of setting up a new connection; the following four types, presented on the first page of the wizard, are available:

Option	Description
Connect to the Internet	Use this option to set up a new Internet connection; on the next page, choose "Set up my connection manually."
Connect to the network at my workplace	This option helps set up a remote connection to a business network, either through a dialup connection or through VPN (Virtual Private Networking), assuming your business network is set up to accept such connections.
Set up a home or small office network	Choose this option to run the Network Setup Wizard.
Set up an advanced connection	This last option is used to set up other types of connections, such as those that use a single serial or parallel cable (also known as "Direct Cable Connection") or those that communicate wirelessly with an infrared port. Note that the other computer involved must be first set up to "accept incoming connections" before you can connect to it.
