internet connection problem


Though under Windows my Internet connection works fine and fluent under Debian linux it connects and disconnects repeatedly at short amounts of time. It didn't used to be like that but at a certain time i was forced to install pppoeconf to get my DSL internet connection going, after that even if i've uninstall pppoeconf and now i'm only using nm-applet to monitor my internet connection i still have this annoying problem.

It sounds like it's configured to connect when needed and disconnect when there is no activity. Read the pppoe manual especially DEMAND. Then check the ifcfg-ppp0 file/script for relevant settings.
