Trouble Using High-Speed

[Guest skcocsihm]

We just installed a wireless network connection on Windows XP Home edition

and left sympatico dial up. So far all computers, but my mom's are able to

browse the internet. On my mom's computer, it picks up the connection and is

apparently connected. But when I open the internet, my mom's old sympatico

ISP connection pops up and the computer won't use the new high-speed

connection. I've tried working offline, undoing the dial-up connection as the

default connection, and going into internet options and saying only dial if a

network connection is not available, but nothing works. Any help would be

greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Tools | Internet Options | Connections | Never dial a connection.
