RE: Internet with Debian & Cayman 3220 router slower than with Windows & 56K modem
Well, dhcp will be the reason your resolv.conf is being changed If
you are using pumpd then in /etc/pump.conf put:
device eth0 {
nodns
}
That'll stop it touching your resolv.conf file along with your ip's etc.

DCHP is set on the router & also on Linux (I believe at least, because
Linux installed itself from Debian's FTP server using the automatic DHCP
routine of the installer ... )

RE: Internet with Debian & Cayman 3220 router slower than with Windows & 56K modem
A good guess will be that you have dhcp turned on in the router and on your machine However you say that your connection is like a 56k modem (or slower), not sure why dns would matter on this one You should find with most adsl/ cable modems that using their build in dns is fine, they will have got your isp's dns server address' via dhcp and will be using those to respond to your machine. I'm assuming your problem is more that when using the web for example that downloads go slow rather than you not being able to get to sites? -Original Message- From: Luca Zampetti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 January 2003 23:58 To: debian-sparc@lists.debian.org Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Fw: Internet with Debian & Cayman 3220 router slower than with Windows & 56K modem Importance: High It is a real pain there is a program for setting the pppoe connection that shows up in some kde menu, running it leads the OS to discover it has a eth0 (which it already knows) and to nothing else because apparently the interface is already in use by some connection (wonder which one, I have only one ...) ... ifconfig does not help either ...

Re: Internet with Debian & Cayman 3220 router slower than with Windows & 56K modem
I guess your network interface settings are inconsistent with the router's port (assuming you have connected to it directly). On an Ultra use `ethtool' to view and adjust the settings, but that doesn't seem to work on sparc32. [I'd actually be interested if anyone else can say what to use on sparc32.]
