..Wireless internet

I am not quite sure if I'm in the right place, but whenever I plug the cable in so that my internet goes faster (and PR experience gets better), I still use the wireless internet, and whenever I open up a internet page it sends me to my internet account. (I don't know the terms in English xD). Does anyone know what the problem is? (Phone calls are extremely expensive when made from atleast 1000km distance >.>)

I am sorry but to me your situation is unclear.
Please elaborate.

Tell us also what are you expecting, what should happen.
How do you determain that the WLAN is still used instead of the Cable-LAN? Maybe provide screenshots.
What do you mean by "internet account"?


If you disable the WLAN windows should fall back to its next best available connection - your cable.
Usually (especially if you are using a laptop) there is some kind of WIFI driver icon next to the clock (not the default windows connection icon) that will let you switch the WLAN-Adapter on and off.
You could also go into the device manager to disable the WIFI-Adapter.
Or go into "Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections" and disable the WLAN-Connection there.

Well, you've explained it without even understanding my problem xD, it works now, thank you. I didn't know I had to disable it, I just disabled it and turned it on again, without letting itself sort things out.
