When disabled it in my /etc/modules.conf (debian unstable) everything worked fine. This router now works for me for 3 days without any interruptions, connection is good, serving 3 computers with DHCP and NAT, I had one power failure and everything got back to normal without any intervention. It still does not mean this is a good router, however it seems to work fine. Well, it is a nice little linux box... -- Ori Idan ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
