Hi

I have a friend who works at a school and all of the staff are provided with HP tablet PCs. She has recently got AOL wireless broadband and she wanted to connect the tablet to her home network, so she asked the IT technical department if it was ok for her to install AOL and was told no as it is a school tablet. She turned around and said well what about all of the year 7 & 8 pupils who have AOL at home? This stops them from being able to do there homework on there tablets. There answer was the same.

My question on behave of my friend and all of the Year 7 & 8s who use these tablets is, is it possible to connect the tablets to a AOL wireless network and browse the internet without having AOL 9 installed?

I am not a AOL user but believe the latest version is AOL 9, somebody correct if I am wrong.

Regards
Tom
