Hello,
I'm using PPPoE with an i586 machine running 2.4.2.
The machine connects fine and allows network traffic to pass through the link.
However, certain websites seem to choke. (notable ones are www.chapters.ca and www.hp.com)
Using Lynx or Netscape I get the same results, a few bytes of traffic are received and then nothing (eventually the connection times out).
The same does not happen in windows. (ugh)
I have not encountered any machine that I have telnet/ftp/ssh access to that breaks in this way so I can only confirm that http traffic is not working.
This gateway machine does masquerading, and internal machines and the external machine react the same way.
TIA mh
Here is some useful info:
