== Connect to the Internet
{top}

antiX should automatically connect you to the Internet 
if you are using a wired (ethernet) connection. 
For wireless, you will have to configure your network connection.
antiX provides connman to do this.

== Connman

This is now the default network manager used on 'antiX-full' and 'antiX-base'.
It supports wired and wireless connections. 

== Ceni
{top}

Ceni is the default network manager used on 'antiX-core' and 'antiX-net' 
It is a CLI application, which allows users to configure 
/etc/network/interfaces through a command-line interface.
It supports wired and wireless connections.

The screenshots below show the procedure for a WPA wireless set up.

== Dialup

Some may wonder why we still include this option.
It is because so many parts of the world only have dialup.
antiX ships with gnome-ppp as it is light and simple to configure.
