How to connect Ubuntu to the Internet through a broadband connection?

I decided to give Linux a try, and I picked the Ubuntu variant. I have some problems with the Internet connection though. I have a broadband (modem-less) PPoE connection, and all the info needed in order for me to connect are the username and password (which I have).





Where can I enter this info in Ubuntu? Step-by-step please. How to connect Ubuntu to the Internet through a broadband connection?

How to connect in a bluej program a stock file and a purchase file?

It is a project i have made so i have to connect the code to add stock details with the purchase code i have made. So how do i do that. Its urgent plz help!!!??????How to connect in a bluej program a stock file and a purchase file?
I don't understand what you mean by the files you have made.





If you have made a stock and purchase class, then you create new instances of these classes (probably in a new class with a main method). Then you call the methods on these classes as you need.





For instance, you have a stock class that has an *** method.





Stock st = new Stock();


stock.add( %26lt;parameters%26gt; );





Similarly with the purchase class, create an instance of the class and call the methods on it.





If you are talking about inputting a text file you could use a Scanner and the file name as the parameter to the scanner.


The Scanner API:

To output a file, you need to use output streams, etc.


I answered a previous question on output of files, check it out here (options 2 and 3):

    How to connect to the internet with wireless?

    I have a Windows XP and the laptop has Internal wireless. How do I connect to the internet. Do I need to download a driver?


    No CD is included and the manufacture has wireless driver only for Vista which I previously used.How to connect to the internet with wireless?
    you owuld seriously go from a more default prottected computer to xp?.....wow


    anyways when you installed xp, the cd most likely did not have the drivers for your hardware, most likely because xp only includes driver for about 2003 products and below.


    so find out what is the name of the wireless card in your laptop and find the driver for it and install it





    when you install it, a little thing should po up saying ';Wireless Networks Found'; or something like that


    then click the ballow to open a box and click on your wireless connection then type the password and your inHow to connect to the internet with wireless?
    look up drivers for windows xp
    if u dont have the wireless symbol in the start menu tray then u need a driver





    if u have the wireless symbol, the simply right click on it. And view avaible wireless networks
    You will need to have a wireless router, in order to have wireless access at home. Once you have a wireless router installed, you may need to install drivers on your computer, to enable wireless communication on your computer.
    you dont need another driver unless your wifi card is not working right click my computer then go to hardware tab then device manager and find your wifi card and try to find or update driver if not go to the manufactures website and download it then just go to wireless connections and find your home connection and enter the key or passprhase.Make sure your wifi card will work with whatever your router is using B G N and make sure it will work with the kind of encryption your using as well and your good to go.
    you could go to the laptops website and enter your model number and look for drivers that way. aslo check for hotkeys and any switches on the side of your computer

    How can i get my airport to connect automatically to the appropriate network?

    I am using a macbook pro with all of the latest updates to leopard. Every time I am at school it always connects to the dummy network for non-students. The network for students is hidden.





    I have put it at the top of my preferred networks, but it always connects to the non-hidden network I don't want to connect to.How can i get my airport to connect automatically to the appropriate network?
    Airport is really wacky. What you are doing is correct, however go into the listing for your preferred networks and make sure you remove the non-student network from the list. Select the network to remove and hit the minus sign to remove it from the list. Then, if Airport cant find your preferred network it will prompt you with a message telling you that it cant find any of your preferred networks and ask you if you want to use a different network.





    Note: If you hit yes, it will add it to the list so you have to go back in and remove it if you dont want it there by default.





    Airport has had issues since OSX 10.5 came out that they have not yet resolved, network issues like yours are only one of them...





    Have you dealt with the dropped connection bug yet?How can i get my airport to connect automatically to the appropriate network?
    macbook pro...ugh!





    anyway, just take the non-hidden network out of the list and ensure you have the student network details entered correctly (SSID and key)

  • How to connect pieces of fondant on a cake?

    I am making a cross-shaped cake for a baby's dedication at church and I am not completely sure how to connect pieces of fondant without showing a seam. I don't want to use icing borders or anything to cover it, either. It is going to be a cross-shaped cake with white fondant, luster dust, shimmery white ribbon around the bottom and her monogrammed initials on the front/center. ANY help will be greatly appreciated.How to connect pieces of fondant on a cake?
    Just warm it enough so that you can mold it around the cross in one piece.How to connect pieces of fondant on a cake?
    Hi MMo2! Cake decorating isn't really my thing, but there was a show on PBS about it. When they used fondant, they always rolled it out bigger than the cake (and they did some different shapes). It seems the fondant is very pliable at room temp. So it seems that you could roll it out to about the same shape, even if you have to piece it together to roll it. When you get it on top of the cake you should be able to mold it to the shape of the cake fairly easily (the pliability thing). Hope this helps!
    If you have to do it in pieces just dab your finger in some water and run it along the seam to join them together (you may have to rub it lightly to join the seams) and you won't be able to tell where they were joined.
    you can just add a drop of water to the piece of fondant and you can stick it onto the other pieces of fondant
