Use Netgear modem router (V90 + 4 10M/bit ports). When downloading from ftp.uk.freebsd.org after 2 hours my ISP hangs up the line. The install program then hangs (can ping it still from another PC (WIN 2k)). Have to reboot PC and find that not enough was downloaded. >How-To-Repeat: Install via floppy/FTP and then disconnect the phone line. >Fix: Get the FTP download to actually check if it is downloading !!! >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
