Hi, Can you say why you can't connect to the internet? What have you tried, and what happened? Can you say what environment you are trying to connect from? As a newbie it is possible that you have no idea where to start, but it is also possible that you have tried a few things with no success as yet. Please say if you are using dial-up, cable, or DSL, and what you have tried and where it has failed. This will help me and others to step in and offer suggestions. Andy
