  1. with Orange it not the loging on/off its the user account that is looked at in other word your user name fti/****** then your mot de passe de conexion that give the account opening facility. If you set up two email accounts on the same user account it will asked which account you want to sign in. So the only way that your account can be accessed if from  a PC/mac that has your account details on it fti/****** etc or your email address and your  email password. 
  2. Well the conection is not gonna be any quicker cos you will still be using Dial Up max 56k but normally about 40k. The only way to increase internet speed is to speed up the conection ie adsl. I would dump the orange install and just set up a dial up network, it uses MS componetants and not the largeish program from orange and it all in english.

     

    Go start, programs, accesories, new connetion wizard aand then foloow the instruction

     

    hope this helps

  3. IF its a Sagem, thomson or ZX it is just a USB modem and will not connect unless you ask it, if its a live box you can set it to conect as soon as you start but I would get rid of the LB and get a prpoer router like a Netgear or linksys.The above USB modems will got to 2mb connetions while the router will give up to 25mb. There is no difference between usb speed and RJ45/ethernet only that you do not have to install a driver for ethernet.
  4. Check to see if it has installed correctly right click my computer then go to properties then device manager. If is not installed it will have either a red X or a yellow ! next to it. If it looks OK check the orange seting that it is looking at the modem and not the networkcard. This is in the configuration setting. But I would say its the modem driver.

  5. I would use Dell as they deiliver either from the UK or France the UK delivery is bit more expensive but it can all be done in english, the french is usally free but has to be done in French. But you must ask for english keyborad and english O/S. Delivery is about 4 days from France and about a week from the UK. Then only difference between UK and US is @ and " as far as I remember.
  6. 1 meg connection is nbetter than you are gona get on Sat. For a start the 1 meg will work all the time unlike sat. The cost of upload and download is about £100 per month yes ££££ per month and the set up fee starts at about £600-£1500 depending on the system needed. I would stick with the 1 meg. This is from an IT tech in 17 who is still on Dial up cos we are 2% of FRance who cannot get ADSL
