Hi
I recently bought a Samsung mini laptop which had Windows 7 starter installed on it, but after I tried to dual boot it with Kali Linux and buggered it up I lost the operating system.
I managed to install Windows XP onto the machine and from there I upgraded to Windows 7 Professional (32bit).
Unfortunately I'm unable to connect to my broadband although I can get on the Internet with an Ethernet cable plugged in.
That's all well and good, but I need to take my laptop to my Uni every day and the Ethernet cable isn't long enough to allow me to do that.
You'd think after having Windows 7 on my desktop computer all these years I'd know how to connect to broadband, but I'm stumped.
Please put an old man out of his misery (and sleepless night's) and tell me how to fix this annoying problem.
Thanks a lot.
Michael.
