If it's working and then stops, obviously something is changing. This could
be related to your internet connection if you have a dynamic IP. Other
typical causes for problems after a while include running out of memory or
ramdisk space.
Try to provide more details about your setup, especially your 'net
connection. You mention you're using EigerStein2Beta, but your log entry
lists the ppp0 device, which is unused in the default EigerStein setups.
You might also record & provide the firewall rules when things are working
and when they are broken, so we can dig through them for changes. See the
troubleshooting howto if you need help with this:
