(now -test8), I have been encountering problems with my pppd/pppoe setup. Specifically, right after the ppp0 interface is brought up, and several packets go through that interface (4-5 packets RX/TX), no more packets are transmitted until I restart pppd and reconnect to my ISP. ping www.google.com will report 100% packet loss, and I cannot see the TX packet count on ppp0 increasing. Nothing suspicious appears in ppp.log. More often than not, I have to reconnect multiple times until at last a working connection is established. I may have not included all required information, but I don't know what might be useful in diagnosing this problem (this knowledge would possibly let me correct it without posting). I believe it is kernel-related because with 2.4.x everything works fine in the same circumstances. The software versions are: pppd version 2.4.1, pppoe version 3.3 (from roaringpenguin.com) I would be grateful if you CC'ed me in replies. Best regards - Jan Ploski
