I have a desktop PC and a laptop which I have set up as home network. I am
connecting the laptop to the internet via the modem connected to the
desktop
PC, this works fine for the internet but when I try to use Outlook Express
on
my laptop it will not use the LAN and keeps asking me to dial-up to the
internet. How can I get Outlook to connect to the internet via the LAN
instead of wanting to dial up??


Also, Go to OEtoolsaccountsmailproperties of each accountconnection
tabremove the check from "always connect using", it should now use any
available connection.
