hi all
i am using Fedora5 AMD
i have some doubts about networking
terminal->neat->activate or deactivate.
when i deactivate the network, it will work fast(means it will quickly deactivate). but when i activated. it will take few seconds..
why it is happening like this.
if your using DHCP on a router maybe its taking afew seconds to get the IP, or maybe its just running some scripts to bring up the network interface. it will probably always be quicker to disconnect than the connect.
if you have a requirement to have it connect faster, then have it connect automatically on boot, and dont deactivate it.

hi
why i need this is.
in my program am opening a browser when net is activated.at this time
my browser some times not loading,coz of slow activation.
i am doing this manually,i.e ifup eth0 and ifdown eth0.
can u help me how can i get my browser without error window.(i.e www.xxxxxx.com not found)
i would again suggest having the device start when you boot the computer. in linux there is a file that you can make executable (/etc/rc.d/rc.local) and add your commands to it (ifup eth0) and it will run when the computer boots. im sure there are networking scripts for your distro that will do the equivalent--search around. or is there an option in your GUI for networking/system configuration that specifies you want it to be enabled automatically at boot?
