Ethernet is much easier, just install your Ethernet drivers, plug in the modem and if you had a previous net connection, you need to set it up new via Lan, you won't need any ISP software at all....

Also providing you've a good Lan card, it's faster too.

Just uninstall your ISP software, then once the Lan card and drivers are set up, the quickest and easiest way to set up your network connection is to run Control Panel, Internet Options, Connections Tab, Lan Settings, check the automatically detect settings, Ok and exit

A reboot afterwards is recommended to refresh your DNS etc...
