Br Philippe<br><br>Afterthought, puzzled, having reconsidered.<br>Why should you be not able to receive conventional wired broadband any more?.

I am told I need a "dongle" (I think) in order to be able<br>> access this from my desktop. I have also been warned that not all of<br>> these beasts work well with Linux.<br>> I use OpenSuse 11.1.<br>> Which dongles can't I use? Can anyone recommend one that will play<br>> nicely with OpenSuse?<br>> What do I have to do once I get my dongle? I can probably cope with<br>> opening the packet, turning on the computer and finding both the USB<br>> port and YAST. I can also get a console up if I need to use the command<br>> line. But after that I'll need detailed instructions, being a "bear of<br>> very little brain" (Winnie-the-Pooh in case you're wondering) when it<br>> comes to computers.<br>> Thanks for any help that you can give me,<br>> Peace<br>> Philippe<br>> <br>> -- <br>> <br>> Br.
