    Hi...

    Quick question:

    Is it worth downloading and installing this? I am on Win 7 (32-bit, if that is of any help) and on a R400.

    Advantages/ disadvantages, if any?

    Many thanks!

    Cheers!

    If you have no need for the advanced features in Access Connections (and you probably don't unless you use multiple workgroups in a corporate environment), then AC is not necessary. Windows 7's network management is just fine.

    Nopes, I don't use more than 3 groups - one home and 2 workgroups. I should add that I have thus far faced no problems with network connections (wired and wireless).

    Better perhaps to skip this rather than to unncessarily add extra utilities. Thanks.
