[olug] LAN Connections

[Don E. Kauffman]

I'm having a problem keeping my connection to the cable modem up. The 
ethernet on-board "card " is a TLAN and it connects to a DHCP 3 com (?) cable 
modem. It seems to go down later at night 8-11 or so. I've reset the modem 
and it'll be up for no more than ten minutes before the connection goes dead 
again. I'm on Qwest Choice Online. They replaced this modem Tuesday and the 
same thing happened again last night. Can you folks offer any suggestions as 
to what might be happening  and preventive meauures I could take? I'm using 
RH 7.2  Linux as my routing service and as far as I can tell everything else 
seems to be working right. 

Thanks!
