Anyway to auto connect once starting xp?

Is there anyway for the pc to auto connect once entering xp? No need for me to always be here and go to the Connect to menu. I know you can place in startup, but that only makes the connection startup after xp launch. Thanks

www.raspppoe.com

Use that instead of the builtin PPPoE client. Instructions on how to have it autostart are in the readme. The other option is to use a router.

Get it: Download & Install

Do you see that?

32-bit release for x86 machines
Download the PPP over Ethernet Protocol, Version 0.98: RASPPPOE_098B.ZIP (153,664 bytes)
Unzip the downloaded archive to a temporary directory and read the documentation (README9X.HTM if you are using Windows 95/98/98SE/ME, READMENT.HTM if you are using Windows NT 4.0, or README2K.HTM if you are using Windows 2000/XP/.NET) thoroughly for installation instructions.
You can also preview the documentation online for Windows 95/98/98SE/ME users here, for Windows NT 4.0 users here and for Windows 2000/XP/.NET users here.

You have to scroll down.
