Yeah.... I just checked and nothing appears to be blocked How do I give you enough info, Brian? As for restarting the computer after the update I didn't really update it. I burned an install disk and did a fresh install preserving /home. As for the wireless chip it is a: Ralink corp. RT5390 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe but it can't only be the card because the ethernet is not working either. No Networking seems to have been setup.
