Yes, my main concern is connection, because I have VoIP phone and is no fun getting disconnected every hour or so. But, Carrytel told me to connect my PC directly to the cable modem. Right after talking to them, my IP and DHCP lease time changed. Before it was 1 hours lease, now it's 48 hours.
I'll look into "ping". Problem with ping is that it prints timestamp in Unix seconds. I want it in regular date/time. -- William Park <[email protected]> On Sat, Jan 27, 2018 at 09:25:05PM +0000, Giles Orr wrote: > So ... is the problem disconnection?
