I use a RaQ2+ as a router, and I use eth1 as the Internet port, and it goes down but not often, maybe twice since I put it up, probably 3 months. eth0 keeps working an that is the Intranet, so it's not much of a problem to go in and restart eth1 When I read your message I thought it was strange the you had trouble with eth0 and I eth1. gotta love those RaQs Gerald -- http://frontstreetnetworks.com | http://raqware.com Front Street Networks LLC, 229 Front Street, Ste.#C New Haven, CT 06513-3203 | phone: +1-203-785-0699
