Hi, I've spent the last weekend trying to understand why aMule crashes my adsl connection. So here it goes:
config: K-6 200MHz, VXPro+ motherboard, 64M EDOSIMM, 2 HDD, Sagem Fast 800 E2 adsl modem (with unofficial eagle 1.0.4 driver ppp0), video and lan card.
system: mandrake 9.1 updated via MandrakeUpdate, nat gateway, kde 3.x, aMule 1.2.6 (rpm package), ssh-server, vncserver...and i think that's all!
problem: the internet connection (adsl Club-Internet) is working fine as long as i don't launch aMule. When i launch aMule connection is still on (i can start downloading stuff), but when i begin uploading to other users the connection freezes. The modem is still operational (showstat command) but i cannot restart the net connection (if i launch stopadsl and then startadsl, modem gets stuck at booting). The only way to relaunch the internet connection is to reboot. I'm new to linux so i can't troubleshoot the system yet!
Anyone have the same problems or have an ideea about how to make it work? Any suggestion would be really welcome! thx
