Windows 7 - How disable/enable network adapters

I am running Win7 Starter Edition on a Dell netbook. I need to enable
and disable the wireless and wired network adaptors as I can from
Control Panel | Network Connections in XP. How do I do this in Win7?

Huh? I have never seen Vista but in XP you double click Network
Connections in Control Panel and get a window that shows each network
adapter, then right click on the adapter and choose enable disable.
There is nothing that remotely resembles that in Windows 7. When I
finally found the network adapters there was no context menu. Instead
you have to double click the adapter? The last time I looked that is
inconsistent with Microsofts own UI design guidelines. It may be
obvious to some but not to me. Oh for the days of the model 10 Teletype
and the 029 card punch.<g>
