have you ever heared of network voodoo. well if you haven`t you will now
i have a router(slackware 10.1) the internet connection is on eth0
the connection to the clients is eth1(from eth1 to a switch to 8 clients)
it worked fine for a month and a half and then suddenly problems appeared
the clients behind the switch are complaining that the internet has aleator intreruptions it works 10 min and half an hour it doesn`t(they lose connection with the server`s eth1, that is in the same class with them)
the net works aleatory for 2 or 5 clients or all the clients
i have connection from the internet on eth0 it works great without intreruptions
the cable has been tested with a tester(it`s ok)
the ip-s are statical, and i don`t have any nat
the firewall is also down
i thought of seweral sollutions that didn`t gave any result
- i recrimped the jacks on the ends of the cable betwen the router and the switch
- i replaced the switch
- i reinstalled linux on the box
NOTHING can you come with some logical sollutions, because i am starting to belive in voodoo
