Re: Using internet - how to?
I'm uncertain what you are after. I assume you have tried the firefox icon on the top of the screen? If so, could you tell us if your machine is wired or wireless?
what do i type in terminal to execute this file?
I downloaded scanmodem.gz and extracted it.
It ends up on the desktop as scanmodem.june16
In terminal, how do I execute this file so it will scan the system for the type of dial up modem - what exactly do I type?
I'm frazzled. Basically, while in terminal I need to type something to execute the file on the desktop

You already gunzipped it?, I do not know of the program, but typing its name will execute it, usually. You might have to type "cd Desktop" first, without quotes.
Try:
Code:
Desktop/scanmodem.june16
This is assuming you did not already change directory.

When I type this it says permission denied
Re: what do i type in terminal to execute this file?
try running it as root... as long as u know the softwares attributes...
sudo Desktop/scanmodem.june16
