Both eth0 and wlan0 have network access and I can get each one to work with "Puppy Network Wizard" but when I want to change from one to the other I have to put the IP and Gateway address in repeatedly before it eventually sticks and will work.
eth0 and wlan0 use completely different addresses, so I don't think there's any conflict there.
Sometimes the following error comes up:
SIOCADDRT: File exists
But usually the problem is that the new addresses I put in are ignored and are reverted back to the old ones.
Please help me out and tell me if I can simply overwrite a file somewhere.
The same goes for /etc/resolv.conf which seems to have a mind of its own and change by itself.
I am using Puppy Slacko.
How can I quickly swap between eth0 and wlan0 ?
It would be better to have some kind of auto-reconnect feature. Network profiles would be ranked by preference.jafadmin wrote:Right-click the network tray icon then click "disconnect". Right-click again and select "setup networking"
On second thoughts though one could put a script shortcut on one's desktop to quickly connect to a network.
