The PM waits in 'output' until the recipient reads it. The problem is: /usr/sbin/sns: line 533: iw: command not found You need to install 'iw' from the PPM. Later puppys already have it.

Re: Anyone tried the Brave browser?
BTW, I was thinking of using Brave browser.
But not sure whether they have really stripped off google-specific code (similar to the ungoogled chromium).
Does anybody have any idea regarding this?
Thanks.

Re: default connection specify -- how to?
Ah, found something....
It clearly says that wireless profile is tried first...
That means wireless choice is by default; it is built into the bricks & mortar of system.
Istn't it?

Has anybody experienced crashing of tabs in either v92.0.4515.131 or v90 ?
In my xenialpup64 7.5, many times crash is experienced on both the versions. Only new tabs crash upon opening. Existing tabs keep working.
In Lubuntu on same m/c, it's not seen.

Re: default connection specify -- how to
This is just a physical solution. Laptops usually will have a function key that turns off the wireless interface. Perhaps that will enable your eth0 default setting. ndujoe2 By using function key, wireless would be disabled temporarily. That's it. How can it change default conn in settings file?

Re: default connection specify -- how to
@mikeslr
I looked at Barry's SNS as well as Network Wizard.
Although these are nice tools for internet setup, I couldn't find a way to specify default connection.
BTW can you please tell me what's the config file name and location for newtwork setup? Maybe some tweaking in that file would help.
