Might I suggest that no 1 is the old dial up modem built in to your PC now redundant
No.2 is Local Area Network card to network more than one pc.

Yep, Celia,  I have the same thing on my computer in Scotland - the disconnected one is your old dial up and the LAN is your new BB connection, as MJB says.

Don't worry  Smiley

Thank goodness for that Smiley I thought i had been got at Grin
Because as well as not being able to connect when i was connected Roll Eyes. I got "There seems to be a problem with your B.B.C home page" there was, it vanished Grin  At that piont i did as well Grin
So should i delete the old dial up,how did it get there anyway?
I just switched on the P.C. and i didnt get a message from Hub Grin So hopefully he wont contact me again Grin

Just leave it as it is.

Mine's still there (showing as disconnected) after 5 years.

It refers to the dial up modem (hardware and software)  that is still in your computer.

You might need it sometime - if your BT line goes down, for example.
