I have these same warnings all over my syslog in minute-wise intervals
when my ADSL modem de-syncs with its headend. I can force these messages
by powercycling my ADSL modem, or by removing and re-inserting my dataplug
into the modem.
I have found this kinda annoying, but not that irritating. It has helped
me to discover the arp adress of my ADSL modem :)
(Now what else can I do with that thing .. *ponders*).
Is this worth mentioning to my ADSL provider? .. is it really a misconfiguration
of some sort?
