As you mention, you say you are connecting to the broadband from the Xubuntu machine with a WiFi adapter, when you use a cable it works, with the WiFi adapter it doesn't. The assumption I am making is that it could be something to do with the wireless adapter (USB dongle or PCI card or integrated unit). It may well be installed fine in Windows X & Ubuntu, but not on Xubuntu. -- Kris Douglas. www.krisd.eu -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
