Hi Richie, You can set up new network locations from System Preferences > Network but you might first want to check whether there are really no locations previously defined. What happens when you look for "Locations" under the Apple menu (VO-M then arrow down and press "L" to go to "Locations" and Right arrow into the Locations submenu)? There may already be an "Automatic" location set up. In any case, from the Locations submenu you can arrow down to "Network Preferences" which will open up a window for the Network menu under System Preferences. Navigate (VO-Right arrow) to "Location" and then to the pop up button of defined locations. You can select one of the locations and reconfigure which service (Wireless, Ethernet, etc.) it is set to use in the Services table on the Network menu. Or, you can press (VO-Space) the "Assist me" button and get guided through the setup of a new location.
