I had plugged in the GLB-502T to check out its web interface (haven't got my ADSL connection activated yet :-( )and I found my system becoming *lazy*.
The modem's not to blame. I find that removing the LAN connection is the culprit. Like its waiting for something... What, I have no idea - the pppd shouldn't make it wait like that.
