Hello everyone,
Am new here as received a CnMbook Linux OS for xmas,
It seems that I have connected to my home broadband thrrough WiFi and is showing connected with an IP address, however when I try to get online it says Firefox cannot find server. Does anyone have any ideas of what I need to do? Thankyou

Hi alifabyan,
           
   It shouldn't be much of a problem to get you on line, don't worry too much but the instructions supplied are not the best! To start to help you we need to know the following. Have you the latest kernal installed? To find this out when you power up your machine you will get a screen showing cnmbook look at the top left side you should see the letter V followed by a number, V46, V66, or V70, please let us know, also if might help to know your internet supplier and if you are using any  protection/
