Connecting a new pc to the internet
I just bought a new pc and am wondering what steps i need to go through to get connected. Is it just a case of switching the comps over and plugging modem in. Do i have to go through the process of entering passwords and stuff again.

Simply, remove the ethernet cable from your current PC and simply plug it into the new machine. Job done.

If you're connected directly to the modem you will need to power-cycle that too
