Is that your model that is shown here? http://www.adslguide.org.uk/hardware/pictures.asp http://www.efficientnetworks.com/products/routbus.html Go into the configuration manager and disable as many items as you can without interfering with the upstream part to your ISP. You probably have DHCP settings installed for a LAN which you don't need, ie. This explains why you get traffic on your external LEAF interface from 192.168.254.254, because it's coming from the ADSL router itself. You seem to have 2 routers trying to do similar tasks which causes odd entries in your log. If you disable those unecessary items on the ADSL router then the LEAF router should handle those tasks instead, with firewalling, etc., and you let the ADSL router act as a pure router, funneling the traffic to LEAF which should be the "traffic policeman". I don't use ADSL, myself, so I have to avoid getting into deep water!.. ;-) Hope you resolve the issue!.. -- Patrick Benson Stockholm, Sweden _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
