Hi,
I am finding that I wave to run 'service network restart' every
couple of minutes when downloading most anything. Once I do,
the downloads usually continue as usual. I seem to have picked
this problem up when I upgraded to FC5 from FC4 and changed motherboards,
so I don;t know which caused it.
Mobo is ASUS P5WD2-E Premium w/Pentium D (830)
Net OnBoard Marvell Gigabit
Any ideas if I might just have something setup poorly?
What to check?
Thanks
Todd
Try adding "MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes" to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and see if that takes care
of the problem. Some NICs falsely report that they can detect the
link beat of a good Ethernet connection, and then report that it is
missing. If that is the case here, then this will fix it. (There is
a checkbox in the GUI for it, but I don't remember the name...)
