Hi everyone,
First of all, I'm a returning user. I used Puppy around the end of the 2.x days, and loved the experience, but then moved onto several other Linuxes before settling at Ubuntu on my main PC (why I was compelled to do that, I'll never know...).
I've owned a EeePC for about three years now, and most of the time I was running Windoze XP (to my shame), as I didn't get on well with the Ubuntu Netbook Remixes. Came across the Pupeee site two days ago, and downloaded it, and have loved the experience ever since!
I just have a slight issue, in that my internet gets turned off whenever I shut the computer down and I have to manually re-enable it every time I start the computer. Does anyone know if there's a way to keep it on all the time?
Thanks!

What is your wireless setup and how do you have Puppy installed.
I have an EEEPC 701SD and a wireless access point to my network and have no problems. I am using pupeee 431.
When you say you have to ' manually re-enable it' do you mean the wireless settings on the machine or the actual internet connection.

Ian, I've got PupEee 1.0 (which apparently is based on Puppy 4.31) on a full install of my 4GB EeePC.
As for my internet connection, it's a Wireless Network connection to my home router, which I initially setup via Pwireless2. When I shutdown, regardless of whether I have the internet connection turned on or not at shutdown, I always have to press Fn & F2 to turn it back on every time I boot up.
