No. You have to make the most common cases easily configurable. If the 
user has unusual hardware or an uncommon type of connection, chances
are he will know enough about it to configure it himself. This is not
the case with Joe End-User; *he* just wants it to work, he does not
want to have to read 5 or 10 text pages before connecting to the
internet.
