Interesting.
I hadn't thought of checking for a firmware update.
It's running XP.

Nicky,
If you're running Vista on your NC10, could the problem be related to the
connection between Vista and your router (you are using a wireless router
aren't you)?
I had a similar problem which I never resolved with a laptop and an old 3com
router. I tried updating the firmware on the router but it had no effect. Ended
up changing broadband provider which meant that I got a new router and hence
the problem was resolved.
Apparently in the early days Vistas in-built support for wireless routers was
quite poor.
If you were able to use it perfectly with wi-fi in the UK then it may indicate
that the issue is with your router and not your netbook. It could be worth
getting hold of a different model of router to test this theory.
Hope this helps,
Ciaran
