Re: [freenet-support] Freenet crashes DSL modem
How interesting. I am not the owner of the modem, and it is not causing problems for the owners (except those that I've caused) so I don't think I can pursue this issue myself. But I have plans to be bringing in a fast Qwest DSL line myself and I'll will most definitely keep this in mind. Although this looks like a bit of a problem for my freenet ambitions, Qwest has competitive rates and an excellent TOS (unlike, *cough* Comcast... can you say unspecified bandwidth cap? no NAT allowed?) in my area and I think we can figure something out if I have this problem. DSL modems aren't very expensive... Thanks for the info. Sounds like anyone else using this Actiontec modem should keep their eyes peeled for this problem. -Galen On Apr 30, 2004, at 9:05 PM, Niklas Bergh wrote: You are not alone in this if would seem: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8777483~mode=flat Someone says: 'If you guys are still having problems with your Actiontec's.

Re: [freenet-support] Freenet crashes DSL modem
This isn't the first nat router to die like this. Apple's Airport Basestation also has a similar issue. It happens to be that the nat router can't keep up with the number of connections being made and freezes. One thing you might try is to turn off nat mode on your DSL modem and use an external nat router. I know of two nat routers that work well under the load of freenet: Network Everywhere Cable/DSL router (It's in a nice metal box like a small Cisco pix) CompUSA branded FMI router (looks really ugly, but is nice as far as the features it has. Can be found at CompUSA; it's the cheapest one there.) I'm sure there are others that work well also. Eric Hi, I've got an interesting arrangement here. It appears that when I run freenet, it crashes the DSL/NAT (combo device) actiontec DSL modem. Yes, it totally freezes, no data in or out (no pings, dhcp, etc) until physically reset. The arrangement is somewhat unusual, but I can reliably crash the modem. Every single time. Here's how the network layout: Qwest DSL Modem Actiontec w/NAT connected to a Netgear wireless router's LAN side, which creates a wireless network. Then, near the boundary of reception, there's a D-Link access point in client mode that's connected to the netgear wireless network. The ethernet cable from the client mode AP connects to the WAN port on a d-link wireless router. I then connect a variety of computers to the d-link's wireless network. This provides two virtual network with the same internet connection, but different encryption options, coverage areas, etc - exactly my goal. Yes, this is very unusual (both the network and the behavior), and no, I don't want to spend much time trying to fix the problem, but if it's something that there's an easy fix to, I'm all for that, otherwise, it's just another entry for the quirky things list. -Galen ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [freenet-support] Freenet crashes DSL modem
Usually this is caused by the hardware routers/etc not being able to support enough connections. You could try decreasing maxNodeConnections (the default is now 200, but if you have an old config file it might be forced to 512; you could try 100).

[freenet-support] freenet can't find Java
I downloaded and installed Java in /usr/java, but when I run freenet it says starting freenet now: Done then nice: java: no such file or directory. I'm running Fedora Core 1, and am somewhat new to Linux so I'm not sure how to fix this problem.

To fix this, go to /etc/profile.d and create a file called java.sh with the following contents: --clip-- export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03 export JAVA_PATH=$JAVA_HOME export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin --clip-- Remember to substitute /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03 with the actual directory that you installed Java in. After you've created the file and set it as executable (chmod +x java.sh), logout and login. freenet startup scripts should work now. -- Mika Hirvonen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nightwatch.mine.nu/ ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
