Hi all,
I have a Suse 9.3 in a dual boot computer with win xp. The installation has been successful. Only a quirk. Each time i log the Internet, the connection lasts 10 - 20 minutes and close and in Windows all works fine.
You know in my place ADSL hasn't been made avalaible unlike expensive sat dsl. And I log my ISP without set myself DNS WINS and other filters. In case it can be helpful my isp is Tele 2.
Have you any help?
Distribution: K/Ubuntu 18.04-14.04, Scientific Linux 6.3-6.4, Android-x86, Pretty much all distros at one point...

Rep:
Dial-up??? If you have dial-up internet on SuSE, that's not a bug, it's a feature.... ... Seriously, though, if you are using KPPP to connect, it has a time-out to prevent toll charges for phone use. It can't even be de-activated... Use Kinternet, or soemthing similar to that name, instead...
I'm actually using kinternet, but the problem lasts. This is the kinternet log:

I hope you understand better than me the problem. My modem is a Creative Modem Blaster V92 serial 56k.
Thanks in advance,
