Hi.
Every several hours I come to my computer and see the RX led on my modem
going crazy, SD is not so crazy, but blinks on the 14.4 connectin about
every second or so, and the connection is unusable -- it takes ages for
me to log in somewhere via the connection. I get login:, and before I
manage to type is my userID, I get login timeout ...
So I kill pppd and restart pppd. Once new pppd is up, the activity
doesn't re-appear until several hours later ...
netstat doesn't show any active connections that could cause it.
(what utility would show me the type and source of the incoming packets ?)
What could it be ? And what can I do about it ?
OR
How can I find out (== diagnose) what's going on ? And then what do I do ?
Thanx,
Jan
