Hi :)

If you are using Kubuntu or Ubuntu or any other *buntu then it usually picks-up on your internet connection automatically. You might want to go up to the top taskbar and click on the 2 tele/monitor screens icon beside the volume control but really if you are new to setting up network connections then you might want to visit Ubuntu help at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Signpost/Questions#help
Also this guide might help generally
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWind­ows
even if you're using something other than *buntu that last guide can be handy :)

However, if you are not using *buntu then it really depends on which version of linux unless you really get down to the command-line for this but this forum should be able to help either way
http://www.linuxquestions.org
as it deals with a huge range of different versions of linux but is dedicated to linux support.

It might be worth popping along to
http://distrowatch.com
to see if you recognise which of those versions of linux you are using. If you see your version listed down on the right-hand side then click on it and navigate to the "User Forums" for your version of linux. They should be able to give much better help in there.

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
