Sorry everyone, forgot to convert to txt before sending this, so I'll resend I'm having this huge problem: I have adsl, and I connect using that PPPoE garbage. I also just changed ISP for a less expensive one, and I'm beginning to realize why its less expensive. I'm running a machine with FreeBSD 4.7 stable on it and whenever it gets disconnected (about twice daily, believe it or not) it can't seem to "realize" that such is the case and thus never reconnects to get a new IP. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to fix this? Whenever I'm not around, and this happens, I have to go out of my way to drive to where this box is located to reboot it. It's the only way I'm able to force it to reconnect. TIA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
