I meant how to keep it so it's in the online mode when starting
Are you using NetworkManager? If so, is NM actually managing your
interface? If NM is running but not managing the interface, some apps
think they are offline when they aren't. This happens with Evolution and
(I think) with Firefox as well.
Solution: straighten out your NM setup (it's probably enough just to
right-click on the NM applet and mark the interface), or don't use it.
