    Ubuntu internet on EEE PC

    I just picked up a EEE PC by ASUS. I loaded Ubuntu through Wubi because there is no optical drive. I've got everything set up fine but I can't get my wireless internet to work. I connect to my linksys homenetwork and Ubuntu shows me I have a connection with 3 bars. I open firefox but can't display anything. I get the page load error message.

    Any help would be appreciated. I'm new to linux.

    if you are sure that you are connected to the net
    I have a connection with 3 bars
    but firefox can't display anything, It could be a firewall issue, have you configured the firewall recently???
