Is it a cable account, or is it a DSL account? Appropriate help from here, 
should you choose to accept any, depends on your answer.
        It certainly isn't DSL.  I have an Ethernet cable running from my machine
        to a Comcast provided "modem" -- except that it is called a router.  Quite
        obviously it works well from my Windoze side(I am using MS Edge the M$ new
        browser) to dial into mail.his.com, which uses the afore-mentioned Zimbra

        Any suggestions you can give me would be welcome, especially since I know
        you know your stuff<g>.

        Also: although ALSA and pulse-audio are installed on the Jessie side, I get
        no sound there(I have a couple of videos and some mp3s to test on.  They played
        well back in the Golden Days of Wheezy.  Maybe you have suggestions about
        how to get sound working under Jessie?  Needless to say, I can play Donald
        Trump speeches and Mozart on youtube from this present Edge browser, which
        hasn't crashed once(iceweasel, under Jessie, used to crash continually; it
        worked fine under wheezy)

        And if Brian is reading this, I remind him that he is going to tell me how
        to use Jessie to copy to and from my Windows 10.  But he may have given up
        with his efforts to "help" me.
