It detects the Internet connection and says it is established but firefox will not connect neither will the system update. Is there something I need to do in the terminal to make it go online. I have a dsl connection. I had to revert back to ubuntu to get online. Any help would be appreciated. </blockquote> It ought just to connect. There's an icon in your system tray that looks like two computers. If you left click on it, what do you see? If there is more than one available connection, it may not know which one to connect to, and you will need to choose one. If that doesn't solve it, right click on the icon, and make sure "Enable networking" is checked. If so, then choose "Connection Information". What do you get? Better yet, from a terminal, run "/sbin/ifconfig" and post the output here. Choose "Edit connections". Select the connection you want to use and choose "Edit". Make sure "Connect automatically" is checked. Check the IPv4 settings, and make sure they are right for your network. rh </body> </html>
