Bug#698051: No internet connection

2013-01-13 Thread andy008 . feedback
Package: Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.6 Squeeze - Official i386 CD Binary-1



   20120929-15:56





This isn't the first time I've tried installing a Linux distro,  once again, 
I've ended up simply wanting to delete everything relating to Linux  having 
nothing more to do with it.



I think it's perfectly ridiculous recommending having an internet connection 
DURING installation, without giving the installer the means to connect,  it's 
even more ridiculous not being able to connect after installation...



I use a DSL modem connected to a router, searches using either terms in the 
help folder came back negative, trying to connect via the web-browser brought 
up an error message that a username  password were required for a DSL 
router, however, entering the correct parameters only resulted in endlessly 
being asked to enter the required information  NO connection made.



The link below explains more fully how I feel about Linux distros...

What really pisses me off is I had no problems with Tails, which is based on 
Debian, unfortunately it's not designed to be installed permanently.



All I'm looking for is a Linux distro that will connect to the internet, with 
which I can remote control a laptop with windoze on it  visa versa, with my 
choice of web-browser  Office suite, is that really so much to ask 
for?

 I used the latest live image available direct from Debian's own website

Could I ask you to clarify please - were you were trying to install from
one of the Live DVDs, all along?  (And may I ask which one - the
filename of the .iso?)

Your bugreport mentioned CD Binary-1 but that is something else.

Regards,
