Network and Sharing center in Windows XP

[meetdilip]

Just wondering if we can have the same kind of connection detailing in XP. Like

Your PC - Modem - Internet

and if net is not working, it will be showing like

Your PC - Modem -x- Internet

Also any software which resembles Performance Monitor in XP as in Windows 7 ?

simple way is to run this command from RUN dialog excluding the quotes
"ping 8.8.8.8 -t"
