Hello !

For now i have been able to solve a lot of questions just by reading this forum, but this time i have to ask...

I am running a Wl-500g with Oleg's 1.9.2.7-6b firmware and everythings runs smooth except that when the ISP drops the connection (every 24 hrs) the router does not reconnect automatically and i can't get to reconnect it manually either (Reconnect button on status page) but have to reboot it either via the "reboot" command or a power cycle. I had the same issue with another DSL modem on another phone line and another ISP which does no daily disconnects but occasionally (= every few days) had connection hangups.

The logs look like this:

....

...and so on.

Any ideas would be very welcome !

(Should i set an automatic disconnect ? The connection is idle for quite a long time at night, of course.)

Cheers
