(c) Web Browser:

The UbiSurfer has a web browser called Firefox. This browser allows you to open multiple tabs within the same browser so that you 
can visit more than one site at the same time. Its major functions include web page browsing, web page saving, viewing online 
videos, and opening pictures or files.

1) To open Firefox, click the Datawind button on the UbiSurfer. Then click on Programs / Internet / Firefox - WiFi.

2)  Enter the URL (website address) that you would like to visit in                                                                         the address bar.   

For example to go to the Google UK web page type ”www.google.co.uk”. The Google UK homepage will appear on the screen as 
shown.
