Greetings all, I just installed 2005LE this morning, and I'm having difficulty getting my internet working. I am using adsl pppoe, and just can't seem to connect. It worked fine with my 10.1 setup. It may be due to the fact that my security level was set to high by default during installation, and, try as I might I was unable to change the setting to normal. I didn't seem to have that option available to me. I have since tried to find where I can change the security level, but it has eluded me thus far. I'm sure there was a place in mcc in my 10.1 to change this.
My laptop is a Dell 1150 Inspiron, p4 2.8Ghz, 512MB ram. Could some kind soul here help me to resolve this issue.
TIA for your time and any help.

How is your ADSL connected Angus? modem? router? USB? ethernet? driver?
ALso aren't you in the UK? If so then you will be using pppoa not pppoe

*********************************************** Derek, my adsl is connected via ethernet(broadcom). I am in Canada not UK. If I were in UK, I would be trying to get Margot to help me. ;-)
Well, I'm flattered, but I'm no expert on this so I doubt if I'd be of much use - when I was trying to get my broadband connection up and running I had to take a course of private lessons...from Lanman, a Canadian :-)
