When I first installed Puppy it successfully connected to my wireless network, but later this error suddenly appeared, and I don't know what could have caused it: " DHCP client failed to negotiate with wireless network". I didn't change any network-related settings in Puppy and neither did I modify the configuration of my wireless router.
Could you please help me troubleshoot it?
Here's the log file referred to from the window with the error message:
