Hi, all!

My dual booting works well, so I can boot to Kubuntu or Windows with no problem. I tried to configured my Internet access and my mail account in Kobuntu but there is probably something I'm doing wrong cause I can’t find the page that asks to input my IP address and other info to config my modem.

I'll appreciate very much any information on how to do this step by step (if possible be specific on the instructions as I'm not familiar at all with the OS).

Thanks.

Hi,

You probably need to tell manually your kubuntu system what is the configuration of your network. I am not that familiar with this linux flavor but if you do "ifconfig" in the kernel it should show you your IP and others network configuration. Set up your DNS and router as well.
