laptop to a phone line
My Hp zv5100 does not automatically connect to the net when I plug in (somehow I figured it would) unfortunately i am not at a location where i can plug in, so I can't tell you what it says, but how would you configure if you had to go from the begining?
Thanks for your time everyone.

Phone line? Auto Connect? You do actually have to dial up with a dialing program. But, as you didn't mention anything about what isp or what modem or what distro or software your using...
