Help! I know I'm not a techie, but this has really got me flummoxed and I am in need of help with something that is probably so simple I will hang my head in shame!

I am out of the country, and am on a friend's laptop. It has a permenent broadband connection, which is great. However, I have brought my own laptop in the hope that I can go online and continue with stuff that I was working on back in the UK. But I can't get it to connect!

Is there anyone patient enough to tell me how I go about setting up a new connection on my laptop? I can check settings etc on the one that does work if that helps.

Thanks in advance.
