problem with ADSL connection with Puppy Linux

Can you any help? I am very impressed with Puppy Linux and i think I might stick around for sometimes provided I can connect to internet.

I am in malaysia and subscribe to streamyx broadband service. I have problem to connect to internet.

I tried in the office with LAN connection and no problem.

Thanks

Nan

Hello! I've downloaded the puppy

Hello! I've downloaded the puppy linux, and i love it! But I can1t connect to the net. I've got ADSL connection with a router. I run it from a cd. I don't want to install puppy. My computer: Intel 600mhz, 256mb rom. I read a lot of text of this, but i can't understand that, because, my english is very bed... So could somone tell me: How to set up the internet?

ADSL connection

If you dont have a router, and you connection is via adsl/modem and cable, you need to  download and install adsl-start.pup

Then, run adsl-setup  entering your name, password and DNS from the internet provider.

Then, run adsl-start

If yo dont find it or have some trouble,  tell me your e-mail adress and I send it to you and detailed instructions. Luck.

ADSL Connection

Puppy has no problem connecting to an ADSL connection through ethernet cable or wireless. However you will need a compatible modem/router. If you have a small USB ADSL modem from a broadband supplier it will probably not work as it requires windows drivers. If you have a third party wireless router e.g. netgear etc it should work no problem. Click on the connect icon to configure it.

 

By the way you should post problems or questions in the forum in future, as this is a blog.
