I am trying to find a way to get .5 to work properly before trying .7.
My home network has 4 machines, using Suse Linux 10 and Windows 2K. I have installed Freenet .5 on a Win2K machine.
I am able to access the internet from the other machines at the time I start Freenet. However, after Freenet runs for a few hours, the other machines lose connectivity. On the Freenet machine, I have about 50-100 connections. When I stop Freenet, the other machines usually don't work at all, or only work with a few IPs. When I turn off the Freenet machine and reboot the others, they don't DHCP properly and don't get a valid subnet address.
My connection is a cable modem into an old Linksys router, a 4-port befsr41 from the year 2000.
The only solution is to unplug the cable modem from the router, turn the router off, wait for the cable modem to reset itself, and then restart everything.
I seem to recall something about this from previous discussions - some routers can't handle that many connections - so I think the router is at fault. I couldn't find anything searching through archived posts; is anyone familiar with this problem? Would a more modern router be the cure? Some guy at work gave me this one three years ago because it was obsolete, but it had performed OK until it encountered Freenet.
