How might I go about determining what the problem > is?? Yes I run ipfw. I set it from rc.conf as open. I have been playing around some more and I have out a few more things. I don't have to restart dhclient. It's reliably caused by trying to downlaod a file in gtk-gnutella. It'll go for a bit and then a whole bunch of fin's are sent and the connection hangs. ethereal shows my comp trying to ping, do dns queries etc but nothing comes in and nothing gets out. Doing a killall dhclient doesn't work for me, I have to unconnect and reconnect my cable modem. I also am not sure if its my isp( shaw cable). I have had this before several months ago routing a windows 2000 box through this one. When I got shaw to check it out they said their end was fine and that my modem was fine. Any other suggestions??
