hi all, i have a weird problem i'm trying to debug and am stumped - hence i'm asking for help.
here's the skinny. i've been a speakeasy customer for 6 years, and a very happy one at that. i got a static ip coming into the house that connects to a linksys router. on the inside i have a fedora box, debian box and a few macs that get interal static private addresses. this all has worked flawlessly till a few weeks ago. now, whenever i start either kopete or gaim or adium (on the macs) a connection is made from the client but i loose my external static ip and have to reset the router to get it back. the truly weird thing is that we also have a wireless wap that gets a private ip from the same linksys router, and if i use a chat client on a laptop wirelessly, then there is no problem with losing the static ip. any ideas about what is going on? thanks, s -- Sergio (Serge) Rey Professor and Chair Department of Geography San Diego State University San Diego, CA 92182-4493 USA (619) 594-8029 FAX: (619) 594-4938 -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
