Is your program requiring another kind of connection ? I suppose your machine
actually HAS a LAN connection, so it doesn't matter anyways. It's just
a warning that a windoze app will not recognize whether the machine has a LAN,
modem or whatever connection. It cannot influence a real connectivity.

So you definitely don't need to set anything, see above :-).

This version is rather old; try to upgrade. Wine has passed a really long way
of development recently and currently the chances are much bigger that
a program will run.
