WINDOWS8 Network Setup method

The Windows 8 system does not differ much from the Win7 in traditional desktop parts, but there are differences in some details, such as network settings.

Today I take you to see Win8 commonly used in the network settings, and Win7 different, in the WIN8 network settings are divided into two parts, part of the modern UI interface, and a part of the traditional network settings interface. Network settings under the modern interface

Under the modern interface, the network settings are only a small part, and are basically used as a shortcut for turning on/off sharing and connecting/disconnecting broadband.

Slide the mouse to the upper-right corner of the screen or the lower-right corner, exhale the charm bar to select the "settings" in the bottom of the icon, we can see the first line in the "Network" icon.

Network portals in the charm bar

Click on the "network" we can see the current list of the network, the average user in this face usually only two operations, one is a shared network, there is a connection/disconnect broadband.

Network settings

Right-click a network to share settings, there are only two options, that is, "yes" and "no", according to their own needs to choose.

shared network Settings

Connecting and disconnecting from a broadband connection is simpler, but only if the user has created a broadband connection that is not visible. Note that you cannot create new connections under the modern interface, which can only be done in traditional settings.

Traditional Network Setup Interface

As with Win7, WIN8 's network settings are all concentrated in the traditional settings page. There are two main paths into the traditional network settings, one is through the control Panel, and one is to right-click the network icon in the taskbar and choose "Open Network and Sharing Center" to enter.

In the "View Network Activity" section, we can view the current network status.

The Traditional network Setup interface

One of the "Ethernet" is the previous "local connection", there is no real change just a name. Click on "Ethernet" We can view the network status like Win7, where the pop-up window is no different from Win7, including general options such as "Details" and "Properties".

"Ethernet" is "Local Area Connection"

If users want to see a list of networks, they can go through the "Change adapter settings" on the left, which is the same interface as XP and Win7. Click on the network icon you can see on the toolbar will be "disabled", "diagnostics" and other buttons, the effect is the same as before.

Network Connections

Finally, we say that creating a new network is generally a new broadband connection for ordinary users. Click "Set up a new connection or network" under "Change network Settings" to enter the create process.

Create a broadband connection

Select "Connect to the Internet" in the selection interface and go to the next step by choosing "Set up a new connection", then select "Broadband (PPPoE)" and fill in the account number and password provided by the broadband service provider.

Fill in your ISP information

After the broadband has been built, users can enter by creating shortcuts, and of course they can choose to enter from the "network" setting of the modern interface, which we have already described before.

This is about the WIN8 network settings most commonly used part of the introduction, I hope the explanation here is more enough to help ordinary Win8 users quickly find Win8 network settings of the portal and common settings, so that the first time after installing a new system to connect to the Internet, start a new network journey.
