Key Takeaway: This is a typical scenario wherein a user is using two different connection types to connect: dial-up from home and broadband from office. When you configure the PC to open to dial-up connection when you use IE, you are restricting the PC to use only your dial-up connection. If you never want to use a dial-up connection, check the Never dial a connection option.
