I've had this (opening client, turning off, closing, opening again,
turning on, closing) work before when the status of the client said
"Disconnected", but this technique will not work when it says "Waiting
for TCP/IP". It just keeps saying that. This also doesn't have to do with
PPP specifically. I'm usually coming from the following: Airport or
Ethernet at the office, or Ethernet at a client site; I'm connecting to
Ethernet at home. Usually I don't have the problem, but sometimes it
rears its ugly head and my only solution is to restart. Anyway, since it
doesn't seem to be a completely resolved issue, I'll keep testing and see
what I can figure out... Any other input is welcome.
Thanks,
Fred
