Hello,
I recently installed RH 6.0. Last week got a PPP/dial-up connection to
my ISP working. I'm able to browse with netscape, and connect to other
hosts with ftp or ncftp. However, if I attempt to download files (via
netscape-ftp, ftp, or ncftp), the transfer seems to stall after
transferring 2-4 kB. If I run ifconfig while the download is in
progress, it seems all the RX packets have errors.
Here's an example of ifconfig output during a download:
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:209.245.43.22 Ptp:209.244.42.44 Mask:255.255.255.255
UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:145 errors:10 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:10
TX packets:158 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:10
In my ppp options file I have:
modem
lock
crtscts
defaultroute
I've fired up minicom after breaking off a download attempt, and the
modem reports (at&v0) it is set for hardware control flow.
What do I have to do to allow downloads to occur without errors?
