How do I stop "Connect Broadband Connection" from popping up in Vista?

Question

I got Vista a month ago, and I have the broadband connection working fine. But every hour or so, it pops and saying "Connect broadband connection" and when it does that it always stalls my internet connection. Does anybody know how to turn this off?

Thanks!!!

Answer 1

I had the same happen when I got a new computer with Vista. Solved by:

1. Start Control Panel

2. Select "Internet Options". This will open a "Internet Properties" window.

3. Select the "Connections" tab

4. Click the "Never dial a connection" radio button

5. Click OK
