Alan, that is pretty much the same way I have it setup. But you still don't know which network you're connected to. pWireless does not show it, neither does blinky. That's why I also run the pWidgets. Yes!! That new pet is exactly what Puppy needs so badly. Thanks for pointing it out to me. The timi...

Well I am looking for a linux distro for my parents to use, I dont think they can figure out the wireless in Puppy though. Is there a way to make the wireless appear in an icon on the bottom right as it does in ubuntu network manager, or windows xp? I'm new to Puppy Linux, but I'm surprised that ev...
