It is just cheaper in the long wrong to fix something in 5 minutes vs 5 days . Even if the cost is a six pack of beer.
Welcome Greg (from a Canadian in South Africa).
I had a similar issue with one of the old laptops I place with youth I help here in SA. I ekected to go with a Linux compatible wireless USB adaptor (Panda specifically as was plug and play) which I got off amazon for around $8-10 USD.

I got the wireless connection working just now, I had to turn bluetooth on and restart.
The past couple days, I was using a Netgear WN111v2 adapter which seemed to have a better connection with 4 bars continuously, but it works either way now so I'm happy.
Thanks for your welcomes and input folks.
