Couldn't find this anywhere but how do I auto schedule to dial my dataone connection?

create a batch file (.bat file) with "rasdial" to connect and add it to windows scheduler

EXAMPLE
file 1 - connect.bat contains this single line === schedule it in windows to run @ 2.00 am to connect to the internet

rasdial connection-name username password

file 2 - disconnect.bat contains this single line === schedule it in windows to run @ 8.00 am to disconnect from internet

rasdial connection-name /DISCONNECT

* Here the connection-name is the name you have given for your brodband connection, while you created the dial-up connection for broadband
** Now if ur system and modem are on, it connects automatically at 2.00am, and disconnects at 8.00am, no bandwith wastage
