    Hi guys,
    Just bought my aspire one, and love it so far. Been a Windows user all my life so linux' speed is refreshing to say the least....
    Just one minor problem, i seem to having trouble logging in to my wireless network. I can see my router, and i have entered my WEP key. It connected once, but now it seems to be unable to connect.
    I'm using a 2wire 4700 router, using WEP with shared security.
    We have two other notebooks, and they connect fine, but the lil fella seems to be struggling - any suggestions?

    Glad i found this site - i can tell its going to be useful!!

    Can you perform LiveUpdate for AA1?? Obviously on wired connection. AFAIK there is also update for Network Manager - it may help...
