So after many days of fiddling around with settings and scouring Google for answers I finally figured out how to setup my wireless connection to my router using an external adapter, finally...
Now my only problem is that every web-based application I use automatically shuts down after approximately 15 seconds, whether it be Firefox or the Ubuntu software center they all start up fine and runs perfectly for a few wonderful seconds but then they just disappear. I searched Google but I didn't find anyone else who had this problem though it seems that there are a lot of people having problems with Firefox on 11.04.
Would you suggest that I downgrade to 10.04 instead? Also what are the advantages/disadvantages of 11.04 compared to 10.04? (first time Ubuntu here :P)
I am running Ubuntu 11.04 from my trusty USB memory card on my father's (admittedly old and slow) acer Aspire 3003LMi laptop
