Connecting through the router but,....

Even though it works now,......in, say an hour the internet will stop funtioning. I dunno why though,...lol I am using port forwarding to connect through the router, but it seems kinda slow to me,....i dunno,...maybe it's just me. My main concern is why I lose internet. Maybe I have to tell eth1 to grab a new dhcp address every so often? Is that the "pump" command? If so are there any flags that you use? Can I put pump in a cron job to this every so often?

TIA -- Jase

what router?

what internet connection?

I'm confused

ooops,....sorry

eth0 = LAN
eth1 = cable modem

eth1 = gets ip from ISP dhcp

I woke up this morning and checked the status of eth0 and eth1,.....eth1 was down. Some how during the night, eth1 managed to turn itself off. eth0 was up and running with no problem. Anyone have a clue on this?

TIA -- jase

yup still same problem,....eth1 (WAN adapter) turns itself off,...lol,...I dunno how but every 4 hours or so, eth1 will just shutdown. Anyone run into this?

You could try static for a while to test it.

dhcp should not do that but who knows.

anything in /var/log/messages?

This mean anything to you? :confused:

went to bed last night,...eth1 = running. Woke up this morning eth1 = down. I think I have found the problem though,....apparently my firewall won't allow dhcp to go out or come in from outside. So when eth1 tries to renew a lease my firewall basically to dhcp,..."fuck you". /me goes to play with firewall some. :)

although,....this doesn't help either :(

heheh,....time for a new nic me thinks

Here is my problem I think. This is spamming my console.

I think my iptables rules are not allowing dhcpd on my LAN and also blocking my WAN dhcp from my ISP. What rules should I add to allow dhcpd on the LAN side and dhcp from my ISP?

Normally the lan interface is not firewalled.

you need the serverip for this rule

iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -s $DHCPSERVERIP --source-port 67 --destination-port 68 -j ACCEPT
