TDK USB Bluettoth dongle & Cable Modem connection
Posts: n/a
Ericsson T610. This would be for file transfres, Outlook syncronisation
etc. - nothing too clever. Just the right application for "Plug n
Play".... sigh
My PC is set up with an ethernet card connected to a cable modem (ISP is
NTL in UK). IP numbers, DNS etc are assigned by my ISP automatically
using DHCP
After I install the TDK bluetooth software I can no longer access the
internet. The installation proceedure seems to mess up my settings big
time. I have tried various searches with no sucess but I suspect the is
a simple(ish) solution if you understand networking which I don't - so
all help gratefully received.
Before I install I have one network connection:

After re-booting the Microsoft TV/Video Connection connetion vanishes
but the settings on my cable modem connection have changed. Fiddling
with things doesn't seem to have an effect.
