Hi I'm using Redhat Linux 5.0 My problem is that my internet connection is extremly unstable. When i boot my machine there is no problem, I can surf the net, but after a cupple of minutes the connection seems to crash, and I get error-messages like: Unknown host in <host-name> (I use the KDE-browser) First I thought something was wrong with the KDE-browser, but the same happens when I use netscape, although the error-message is different (don't remembe what it was). When I get these errors I can reboot my comp. and then I can surf the net again for a cupple of minutes, then the same happens again (?) I have no problem with sending and receiving E-Mail, and reading news from various news-groups. I'm connected via a LAN, and doing installation of Linux I configured it with the: IP-Address Gateway Hostname DNS Subnet mask Can anyone tell me why my connection keeps failing after a few minutes ? Do i need to do some post-installation configuration?
