I guess the best way is to use firefox. It is heavy byt very usable.
I use dillo and midori as well for some sites. But I do not use web too much on netwalker. |

I used Midori. Was stable enough here. Some crashes occasionally but I seem to get that with any Midori version. I remember it being faster than Firefox and not as heavy on resources.
Have you tried e.g. epiphany-webkit? For some sites a text-based browser might be enough. It doesn't get any more lightweight than that |

Regards That repository is down, but I found this mirror: http://nnc.dyndns.biz/netwalker_rep/ I installed chromium and it's much more stable and faster than firefox. No flash though. |

If anyone has ported lynx or elinks for NetWalker, that would be the lightest you can go, as someone else mentioned.
On my Collie and Tosa, lynx is a browser that makes browsing quick and pleasant for me, I do not like links and elinks and only use them when needed for ssl or lightweight javascript, with the heaver browsers I only use when absolutely necessary. sdjf |
