Subject: [SLUG] ADSL link yoyoing


 I have a bridged ADSL link using a Dynalink RT100+ together with
 rp-pppoe client that keeps recycling the link to the DSL provider
 between about 30 secs and about 4 mins.

 I had to change the config of the modem from routed to bridged and the
 pppoe-server-options file has lcp-echo-interval 10, and lcp-echo-failure
 2.

 Any clues as to what is causing the problem.

 The specific error messages that I get from pppoe are:
 May 27 12:23:47 gw pppoe[12061]: Inactivity timeout... something wicked
 happened on session 3037
 May 27 12:23:47 gw pppoe[12061]: Sent PADT

 after which pppd hangs up the modem and reconnects.
