I have noticed that when ever there is some problem in the link ( due to AP or SM reboot, switch reboot etc etc ) the pppoe connection closes. I have also noticed that the MS Windows client closes connection at 40-45 seconds after the link is down. I tried to increase default LQR timeout period at Server by using set lqrtimeout to some higher values. That did affected the serverside ppp process but the MS client still disconnected at 40-45 seconds. :( I prefer to set the timeout period somewhere between 120-150 seconds so that even if there is problem in the link the client doesn't get the disconnect notice and have to reconnect again and the client and servers are able to continue same session. Is there any way to control the default LQR timeout period of the Client from the Server end?? My question is more related with ms windows still I am asking this question to freebsd group so that I can solve the problem from the server end ;) regards, Bikrant
