Re: [ubuntu-uk] wep key and ubuntu
I think it could well be. Thanks for your suggestion about looking on the Router itself. Might have to get dad to re-install the wireless part, he has done it for his and mum's setup at home because I think they are probably same.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] wep key and ubuntu
Hi, Is this a BT Home Hub router/phone combo you're talking about? If so look on the back of the hub, there should be two sets of information: a BT Home Hub SSID/wep key, which will be for your wireless internet and a BT Fusion id and passkey which I guess is for the phone - we only have the router and not the phone so I don't use this. (I do actually have problems finding the network and connecting to it, but that's another matter...). Hope this helps? On 6/9/07, Michael Weaver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi!

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Latest Upgrade
Hi I said I was not impressed with latest update. Basically my machine just hangs, To be fair I lost patience after a couple of minutes and went back one,(forget the number) that is also now broke! I think I had to go way down my list to find one which was OK. I will be interested to see what it does to my lappy! Funnily I had this problem before (very long boot) but the previous upgrade fixed it.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Preventing lightning strike & surges
In Regards to Lightning Protection BS 6651 will recommend Physical protection - http://www.furse.com/elp/lpov.htm And BS EN 7671 should list how to deal with surges, however I would recommend more than just a Surge Protector, or using a serge protector with a UPS Regards Skippy -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
