Yes I am thick - mac problem

[gargamel]

Any collective assistence

Either I am looking for a chap to do an on site support session to my home PC - a new Mac

Or can any well help me gain an internet connection via a netgear modem and the airtunes (wireless card)

as you will have correctly surmised - I am not desperately It litterate - although I can setup via the menu systems.

I use wanadoo as my ISP - essentially wanadoo don't or won't give me a dhcp number - but when I set up via pppoe the hardware doesn't like it

Any suggestions - or a recommendation of a chap near haslemere who might do an on site support ?

Thanks all

The MacRumors forums (forums.macrumors.com) are very helpful too...

I can highly recommend the "Missing Manual" book for your flavour of OSX. About £20 for a nice, fat book, and takes you right through from "I am a thickie", and "I am used to Windows" to some quite serious stuff. Easy to read and dip into, and some really usefual tips on getting things how you want them.

No problem, just drop me an e-mail if you think I can help

a search on the macosx.com forum usually finds the answer for me!
