Hi Danial, Any ideas as to how I would be able to find out more if it was an arp problem. I don't see how it could be because I have only 3 machines on the network at the time that it died. The three where the router, the freebsd gateway, and my notebook. Is there something I could enable on the sysctl side of things? Or syslogd side of things to try and see if it is an arp problem, and if it is, how can I rectify it ? Cheers Ian -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Danial Thom Sent: 16 February 2006 02:36 AM To: bob@a1poweruser.com; freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: RE: Ethernet Stopping Problem Things that stop after 5-10 minutes are usually ARP related, but I can't be certain. --- bob@a1poweruser.com wrote: > Need more background info. > Explain where you are getting the public > non-routable 10.0.0.0 ip > address from. > You say the ADSL router is using them. > Did you edit your real ip address to hide then > from this public > post? > Also you have to post your ppp.conf file. > Are you trying to configure PPPoe? > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On > Behalf Of Ian Barnes > Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2006 5:47 PM > To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > Subject: Ethernet Stopping Problem > > > Hi, > > I have a freebsd 5.2 box setup as my gateway > for my home network. > The > network is layed out as follows: > > FreeBSD Gateway - 10.0.0.1/16 > ADSL Router - 10.0.0.2/16 > > DHCP Network - 10.0.1.0 - 10.0.1.254 all /16 > with default gateway as > .1 > > I have ppp enabled on the freebsd unit, and it > connects fine and > then > everything works perfectly for anything between > 5 and 10 minutes.
