I have the problem with karmic as well. The machine connecting to the internet is not using network manager, but static configuration from /etc/network/interfaces
# The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 10.15.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 10.15.0.0 broadcast 10.15.0.255 #dsl-provider iface dsl-provider inet ppp pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf provider dsl-provider When upload on ppp0 reaches the ADSL limit, the server itself is no longer pingable (or high latency) on eth0. I can happily transfer at 100mbit in the internal network as long as ppp0 is not saturated, though. The only relationship between ppp0 and eth0 is that eth0 is used to reach the ADSL modem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310035 Title: ADSL connection dropping when using Deluge or Transmission -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
