I've been more or less stuck with using Windows on my laptop for a long time because I get online using mobile broadband, which is plug&play in Windows but not with Linux.
I finally got around to tracking down a web page that covers how to connect, and (Despite the weird and painful way the network manager messes around in Ubuntu lately) I got the modem working.
Initially, there was no DNS - as the page says, the ISP's own DNS seems not to work. But luckily, I know the IP address for this website, to which I have SSH access. And links is installed. So I was able to gain full web access remotely, google the solution - sort out bind9 - and am now fully up and running on Ubuntu using mobile broadband.
Yay!

Because I love the
