I got an internal wifi card for my laptop today. After installing it, I booted up Puppy 4.0 and uninstalled and removed my old driver from ndiswrapper (I was using a Belkin external card). I shutdown, ate dinner, and booted up. Opened the network wizard. Voila! My network card was being recognized (ath0). I went through with the network wizard asked it to save my settings, and had internet working beautifully. I restarted the system to make sure things would still work, and......nothing. No network connection on the menu bar even. I did a full shutdown, turned the system back on, and everything is working as it should be...
I just tried restarting, and the Xorg and screen resolution screens that come up when you first load puppy came up. Hmmm.. I have no clue why that would happen.
Another full shutdown.
Startup again, and everything is fine!
I'm beginning to think this might not be just a wireless problem after that last restart, so I'm going to post this in the beginners' help section too.
Thanks for any help you can give!
wifi works on startup but not restart
