Okay, I got it working on my laptop, and it was fairly easy. If it is  
wireless you're trying to use, try this:

1. Go to System > Adminstration > Network

2. Hit 'Unlock' and type in your password.

3. Select 'Wireless Connection' and then hit the 'Properties' button. Type  
in your settings. For me, this involved just entering my network name,  
entering my password, and under 'Connection Settings' selecting 'Automatic  
Configuration (DHCP)'. Then hit the 'Enable this connection' button at the  
time.

That's it. A few seconds later I was connected to the internet! Hopefully  
this will work for you.
