Info regarding "WAN dies"

[superxx]

Hi,

I've bought a WL500G last weekend.
I'm suffering from the same problem... frequently connections lost.

I've already changed default router IP and assign fixed IPs to MAC Address.

Does anyone reach a solution to this constant problem!?

Thanks

My WAN / PPPoE connection dies when I'm using Azureus or DC++. Can someone please help me with a script to check the WAN / PPPoE connection every 60 seconds and to reconnect PPPoE automatically when it's down?

Use 1.9.2.7-6b.

Use 1.9.2.7-6b.

I am using firmware 1.9.2.7-6b at the moment. Once the connection dies, PPPoE doesn't reconnect ('peer not responding').

Do you've any additional software (packages) running on the wl500g? Also, put "maxfail 0" (without a quotes) to the Additional pppd options field.

Same is happening to me, on my wl-500g deluxe, with the same olegs fw.
Will try "maxfail 0".

I don't have any additional software on de WL500g. Thanks, I'll try 'maxfail 0'.

wl500g deluxe NEVER experiencing WAN port dies problem. So, this is either modem problem or cables or ISP.

Ok. I'll try changing cables, as I've tried another modem and the problem keeps happening.

Unfortunately 'maxfail 0' doesn't help the router to reconnect automatically. WAN died while using Azureus with a torrent that had a lot of seeds and peers.

May be you just ran out of tracked connections?

What do you mean by this? And how do I solve it? Thanks.

Internet Firewall | Basic config > Number of connections to track

I haven't enabled the firewall. So the number of connections to track probably isn't the cause for the WAN dying? Anyway thanks for all your help.

NAT requires connection tracking too.
