Blackfish: Have you tried using the Internet Connection Wizard? Go to Menu-SetUp-Internet Connection and run it. Maybe it will work to connect for you.

Openbox

@Sky Aisling: To start Openbox Try exiting to prompt, then type "startx openbox" (without quotes). I think that may do the trick for you. Let me know.

Ardvaark: Sorry about the delay on my reply. No that didn't work either. Thank you so much for the suggestions and guides to websites. I think for some reason tho in respect to this problem I am fighting a lost cause. My system just doesn't like Vimeo either. lol

Hey Mike: I'm with ya in that respect. I don't want to join them at all. Occasionally tho a video will pop up when I'm browsing that I would like to view, so that's the reason for my quest here. Cheers, Lee.
