While I'm not experiencing the disconnection from the network (my host can still connect without any issue), I see that WinXP Sp3 from time to time can't get an IP from the Nat server. I'm running 3.0 PUEL on OpenSUSE 11.1. I'm installing Kubuntu 9.04 latter this night and will report if the problem gets "fixed" :) Cheers > > My question is has anyone else experienced this?
