Hi!

I use an ISDN router to connect to the Internet. This is a Cisco 3C891.
I can configure its parameters by using a Web Browser on its IP adress:
192.168.1.1.
Then to be able to configure, I have to submit a password.

It used to work fine for years but since 4.0R has been released (not
sure it is related with but certainly), after I submit a password,
netscape (or Lynx or mozilla) tells me that it is waiting for a reply
from my router. And it waits forever (I waited up to 5 minutes).

I have made a search in the mailing lists with no success.

My current operating system is FreeBSD 4.1Stable as of september the
2nd ans still the problem occurs.

Here is the output of a tcpdump I made:
(note: home the is name of my domain and LANmodem is the name of the
router.)
greatoak# tcpdump host greatoak and 192.168.1.1
tcpdump: listening on ed0

^C

Currently, when I need to configure it, I reboot my machine under
Windows and use IE. It works then.
I have another machine with Windows therefore I can also provide a
tcpdump between Windows and the modem if needed.

Thanks for any help!

Phil.
