After a few hours of ppp running the RTT goes around 80ms and eventually it increases and vary from 80ms to 100ms, it happens also that the firsts 3 ping packets are always lost, but globally the 256kbps bandwith is always reached on a ftp trasfer. I do not think it is fault of my ISP because if I kill the ppp process and restart it immediately (/usr/sbin/ppp -ddial papchap) the situation comes back to normality immediately back to 55ms of RTT and the firsts ICMP packets on a ping are never lost. Anyone has any ideas of what's going wrong with ppp ? I have no usefull logs avaliable about this. thanks Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
