me too, the external interface is only fixed to eth. i use ppp to connect
to my isp, then the'll give an ip right after it connected. do i have to
select the DHCP option? is it save to replace the external ip from eth1 to
ppp0?

Try the netgear web sites:
http://netgear.baynetworks.com/support/support_fa310tx/fa310tx_faqs.shtml
http://www.netgearinc.com/support/support.shtml#nc
The first site explains what the newest FA310TX drivers support
(including Linux) and the second site has the actual driver.

I added the lines you suggested but they had no effect. I downloaded and
compiled Knetdump and found out that "HSE-TOR-ppp2271" displayed by
route was actually "HSE-TOR-ppp22711.sympatico.ca" so that the command
route del default gw HSE-TOR-ppp22711.sympatico.ca metric 0 dev eth0
worked as expected, but the command "route add HSE-..." did not work
because at that point the name "HSE-..." was unknown.
I then used the command "route -n" and found out that "HSE..." was
209.226.71.1 and then both commands:
route del default gw 209.226.71.1 metric 0 dev eth0
and
route add default gw 209.226.71.1 metric 0 dev eth0
work as expected. The first can be used after establishing dialup ppp
and the second can be used after terminating dialup ppp.
The reason a dialup is useful is that the high speed connection is not
up 100% of the time. As well, the high speed connection uses an HTTP
proxy server and some things don't work through the proxy.
Thanks for your help.

I'm not an expert on ADSL as such, but my guess would be your ISP
disconnects you after an idle period. Outgoing activity reconnects you,
allowing you to be reached again. Try running a ping command that pings
(say) your ISP's web server once every 30s or so, using ping -i 30 <some
ext. host>. That might keep the link alive. It also might irritate
whoever you're pinging, so you didn't hear it from me, OK?

Date: Fri, 27 Aug 1999 14:02:59 -0500
Hi all,
A bit of a newbie question.
Is it possible to network two machines through an RJ-45 connection without
a hub?
I've got a nice P3 (paid for by work :-) running Win NT 4.0 pack 4 with a
3Com 10/100Mbps PCI card, and I want to connect it to my old 486 running
Debian Linux with a no-name 10Mbps card. The 486 has both BNC and RJ-45
connections, but the P3 only has an RJ-45.
Would a cross-over RJ-45 cable work, and if so ... which wires do I have
to swap? :-)
Email replies please.

That is because as soon as your terminal was disconnected, the shutdown
command aborted. If you really want to run shutdown remotely, you have to
run it in the background with the ambersand. For example:
shutdown -r now &

It is limited to whoever you give permission to run it. You always have
to be careful what you do as root.

Yes, indeed the imapand pop3 daemon in the /etc/inetd.conf has been remarked
