Switch user and keep internet connection

Hiya everyone,
I'm running Vista Ultimate with a Maxon USB wireless broadband connection.
When I'm connected and then switch user, I have to reconnect again. This is
very frustrating, and quite unnecessary I feel.
How do I get around this please? Is it to do with sharing or the public
folder? I don't really understand the sharing concept, as I've never
bothered with different users before, but now I'm obliged to.
Thanks to all and any opinions.

What exactly are you connecting to? A router or a DSL device? Do you have
to actually log on, as in provide a username and password?

How you get around it is likely in the options for the network adapter
driver, which is likely not a part of Vista.

Thanks Patrick,
The internet connection is a USB wireless broadband, it does have a
password, but I don't need to use the password to connect, just click the
connect button, but when I switch user the connection is lost and have to
click connect again.
