Hi,

I've plugged a LAN cable into my new Mini, and it seems to be working because it's got itself an IP address and it can successfully PING to my compurer on the same router. My Google maps show up OK, and so does a weather forecast.

Fine, so far so good, but what else should I be able to do over the LAN? The handbook says that Network is a very strong function and lists some URLs, but how can I enter any URL without a QWERTY keyboard?

I'm lost on this next step and have the feeling I must be missing something pretty basic here! Do I need to download a patch or new config file to get other internet stuff working on the Mini? If so, where are these files on the net? Any menus listing what they do? Basic instructions? Note that I've added an external hard drive, and I can swap files between my Mini and my computer on that, but I'm still not clear where to go from here.
