Frank McIngvale was overheard saying: : I was having the same problem. The PPP link would just stall after a while : and never come back. The link was up, and tcpdump showed a lot of ACK's : going out, but nothing coming in. On a whim, I turned off DMA on my IDE : hard drive, and the stalls have not come back (yet). But, I may just be : having a run of good luck.
Those are pretty much the same symptoms I was having. Most of the time my link would come back up, though, but it took a while. I'll try out the dma setting - how did you turn it off, hdparm?
