why cant i connect to the internet with ubuntu?
ill start off by saying its a live cd. do you need to install it first and then set up the internet connection? i have a 2wire 1100 modem. the way i have it set up is i have the modem connected to the usb port on my computer. i then have a phone cord connected from the modem to the phone jack in my room. i am running windows xp with service pack 2. my computers keyboard driver is currupted and i dont have a windows disc so im trying to install ubuntu linux. i already have a live cd ready. i tried netstat and it came up with a bunch of crap but it said everything was connected. i ran ifconfig and it didnt work either. I need some help and thanks in advance.
