I recently set up a network at home to share an internet
connection with a win98 box. Currently it's ppp/nat with a modem, in
a few days ADSL. It works just fine for a while, but I'm experiencing
unexplained outages where I have to do an ifconfig dc1 down/up to wake
it up again. No error messages on the console.
I also installed Samba on the box which works great (as long as the
network is up). I'm using a 3COM Home Connect hub.
Here's the output from ifconfig:
dc1: flags=8847<UP,BROADCAST,DEBUG,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

I understand that this driver is new to 4.0, so I'm taking a shot
here. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bryan
