You installed it.. ubuntu uses sudo and doesn't have a proper administrator account. Your user account will be a member of the sudoers group.

Modem? or ethernet copnnetion to cable modem?

If this is a dial-up thingy then you need to go into pppoe ethernet settings to put your password/user account details etc in..

Don't know how ubuntu does that.. sorry.

Ubuntu forums will have hundreds of threads and guides for dialup modem settings.. I'm just too busy this weekend to go hunting ;)
