It was a friends computer, he was very ready to switch from MS Windows 8.1 to Linux; I went over, we installed it, and couldn't get up on his Ethernet, given that the computer could see it.
I wanted to sign him up in this forum after getting up; I went to fedoraproject.org just now - 9 hours later - and realise that I've forgotten how to sign up after so long.
