Default Guest user account

As administrator how can I set up an internet connection
for Guest user? When logged on as Guest User, when I try
to set up connection I get the message,"you are logged on
as limited user. Please log on as Administrator to run new
connection wizard"
This seems to be an impossible situation where one is
trying to set up a connection in one account for use in
another?
Any help would be much appreciated.

You may need to temporarily promote the Guest user account rights. Be sure
to remember to both demote them when you are done and to test the connection
following the demotion.

Thanks for your reply. Can you tell me how to promote

guest user account rights? It seems to me that control of
the guest account is limited to turning it on or off.
Thanks
