This computer is wirelessly connected through a linksys router. It uses DSL to connect to the internet. In the router settings it connects using the PPPOE method. No problems. Now I want it so I have to connect through a connection in Windows XP where I have to sign on myself. I set the router setting to obtain IP automatically. Then I connect in windows XP. I connect fine, but then after a few seconds or about two minutes, my computer completly locks up, and I have to turn it off by holding down the power button. How can I make it not do this?
