Hi all, I have OpenSolaris on my laptop and periodically, my router will need reset in order to operate. I was running Ubuntu for several months after trying OpenSolaris in the fall and as soon as I switched back to Ubuntu this spring, my router went back to normal.
What would cause the router to not respond and only start working after a reset? I haven't pulled the router's logs yet as it is with a friend's router. When the problem occurs, I usually switch wireless networks (neighbors ...) and after sometime, the network again becomes unresponsive. I'm wondering if I'm crashing their network too and what can be done to configure OpenSolaris properly to not cause problems. I am using an HP DV9000 series with Intel 4965 WLAN a/b/g and the router I am on is a Linksys, the neighbors is some sort of Belkin. I am using network auto magic to automatically configure the connection (the network applet). Another dumb question to ask is, if I go into the Gnome System Manager and view the network activity, nothing shows up, I get a flat line even when downloading a file. All devices appear to have a proper driver as is indicated with the Device Driver utility. I don't have a firewall configured so everything there is set to the defaults that OpenSolaris ships with. Any ideas what to look for? Walter -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
