Check the MTU. The default is 1500 bytes, but some providers use a smaller value (e.g., on a DSL connection running PPPoE, the MTU is 1492 bytes). If the interface MTU is set to a value smaller than 1500 (left over from a DSL configuration?), packets from the cable modem are probably being lost. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
