Bought a linux notebook last week Acer One series.
I got linux cos people kept saying its great and faster than windows.
When it arrived I followed the instructions to type in the bt home hub number and password, no connection.
Tried allsorts,no connection.
Unplugged the desktop from the home hub, plugged in the netbook and it connects to the internet straight away.
When we are trying to use it wireless it can detect our bt and next doors Sky, so something is working.
A techie friend said oh you just need to keep trying different configurations on the notebook and bt software (on the desktop) till it works. Then he went on hols for 2 weeks leaving us still with no idea!
I even rang the supplier and asked if I could return it as not fit for purpose (well its not for a pair of technophobes is it ) but they said no, but won't give any technical support cos I didn't cough up to subscribe to their technical help line.
Am getting very frustrated and thinking of just chucking it out the window
If anyone can help I'd be incredibly grateful as we just don't have money to waste on a useless notebook [sobbing emoticon]
