NEW 24550 iMac: Using Multiple Internet Access Configurations
I have two internet accounts, one for home and one for work. I need to enter these, but am unsure of how to do this with Internet Setup Assistant or how to access the different configurations once I enter them. Is there an easy way to do this?
