Subject: [gentoo-user] AT&T DSL + Westell modem/router = Gentoo woes

1 I recently switched from cable to DSL on a Gentoo router and I'm
2 having trouble keeping a stable connection. Periodically I need to
3 run '/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart' before it will connect to the
4 Westell modem (which is also a router although AT&T won't admit it).
5 The weird thing is that rebooting the system doesn't reacquire the
6 connection. I have to actually issue '/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart'.
7 Does anyone know why rebooting doesn't reacquire the connection and
8 restarting the interface does?
