Hi All, I've sent mail regarding this before, but after some testing I've discovered this, but here is what I've discovered.
I have a speedtouch USB (frog looking) usb adsl modem connected to my BSD box. It's using the speedtouch 1.2 driver (which runs modem_run to upload the firmware and start the modem) and BSD's ppp to initiate the connection. This starts up on boot. The annoying thing is that if the connection drops you have to reboot the box. If you try and restart ppp manually, you get this in /var/log/ppp.log tun0: IPCP: deflink: Error: Unexpected IPCP in phase Authenticate (ignored) then after: tun0: Warning: ff02::%tun0/32: Change route failed: errno: Undefined error: 0. I've googled to no avail. Many people seem to have this issue. Some say to disable ipv6 support in ppp.conf - done, but didn't fix it. Some say disable INET6 from the kernel config - done, didn't work. Others say the IPCP error is because there's a challenge but no response when it tries to authenticate. Why would that occur only if you DON'T reboot? The stupid thing is that you get these errors, but for some reason tun0 gets given an ipaddress, but you cannot ping anything by name or ip. This kinda points to routing.... but that authenticate error is probably the key. Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
