Presently I am using Kubuntu 5.0 (KDE version of Ubuntu). Just recently
W3 Connex built a tower a kilometer and a half from my home and I now
have high speed access by wireless. From what I gathered from the
installer the system is always on and he showed me on his laptop that I
am now part of a Local Area Network.
So now I have high speed access sitting in the modem behind my computer
but I don't have the knowledge to make it work with my linux box. So
until I solve that, I am still without highspeed. (Apparently Windows
makes the connection automatically. :( )
Any help would be appreciated.
Bill.

We will need to know a little more to help:
1) What kind of "modem" did they supply you with?
i) USB (plugs in like a standard printer)
ii) External via Ethernet (looks like big phone cord)
2) What brand/model "modem" did they supply?
Once we know enough to offer useful advice, we can get you connected.
A little info about your Linux PC would help - type dmesg > dmesg.txt at
a root prompt and paste the produced text file into your reply.
