I doubt they are actually related to your Internet communications problems. It's either an issue with the ISP or your pppoe configuration. -Ross ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

What application are you using to manage your networking configuration? Do you have a DSL modem only, or a combination modem/router? Is your CentOS box plugged directly into the DSL device, or are you using wireless or any additional router? My suspicion would be that either (1) your DSL drops and the log entries above are from the network management software when it attempts to restore the connection, e.g. re-obtaining DHCP token; or (2) the network software itself fails and restarts, which seems less likely. There are additional possibilities if there's a wifi connection, etc. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Interupted Internet Service
Everytime I see this in the logs my internet access stops for about 5 minutes. Nothing else follows in the logs. I have DSL. Any ideas?
