Hi.
After several reboots and having plugged in and out my TP-LINK WiFi dongle
for several times, Tor network is connected.
I have rebooted the laptop for several times, and it works now.

No persistence, no "more options". Just using default and it's working.
It took about 1 minute to connect to Tor after WiFi got connected.


Thanks and sorry for confusion in the previous email.
