Hello all, I am switching to Ubuntu because I am tired of Windows and after familiarizing myself with Ubuntu I find it to be excellent and maximizes my system and its resources. The only problem I have is obtaining an internet connection. I have Orange ADSL. I have tried the instructions in the documentation, but still no connection. Ideas? Any help is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Joseph
