    Question Netbook internet connection?

    Howdy guys and gals,
    Girlfriend of mine bought Sylvania Netbooks for her two boys. She's pretty good with computers but she can't get them to connect, either wireless or wired, to the internet. I took a quick look at them and I truly couldn't figure it out either. The netbooks are running something called WindowsCE? Last time I knew of a CE it was Centennial Edition and that was way back in 2000. It couldn't possibly be that could it?
    I'm at a loss to tell her what to do so I said I would query my teachers here at the PCG. Anyone have any ideas, suggestions, as to what I could tell her to try? If necessary I'll ask her if I can borrow one for a day or two so I can get some help with it.
    Thanks much,
    LG

    That got it jiggy!! Thanks so much, I really didn't even know where to start. I did some searches but that's hard when 1. you don't know how to search very well, I never have. And 2. You have no clue what you are looking for in the first place!
    Problem solved, it connects both ways now with no trouble at all.
    Thanks darlin, very much appreciated.
