FAQ and troubleshooting

Why does the battery on my Joybook seem to last shorter and
shorter?
It is normal for Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries to decline in
capacity over time.
Connection
My modem does not connect at 56K speed. Why?
Several factors can affect connection speed, such as line noise,
the number of people connecting/connected to your ISP, and
the age and the condition of the telephone lines. A 56K modem
does not guarantee all connections at 56K.
I cannot connect to the Internet with the built-in network
interface on my Joybook. Why?
Check if the network has a fixed MAC address. Contact your
network administrator for further solutions.
