Hello! My ADSL provider closes the connection every 12 houres. To restore connection I tried to add persist option into /etc/conf.d/net pppd_ppp0=( updetach noauth debug defaultroute usepeerdns persist) But this solution does not work due to following code in /etc/ppp/ip-down: if [ -x /etc/init.d/net.$1 ]; then if /etc/init.d/net.$1 --quiet status ; then export IN_BACKGROUND="true" /etc/init.d/net.$1 --quiet stop fi fi This means that persist ppp connection is impossible. Thanks!

It looks like that current bug is not duplicate of 145034. At least I have the similar behavoiur after upgrade to baselayout 1.12.5-r1. After closing the connection I have now /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 status * status: inactive and connection can be restored only manually.
This is my /etc/conf.d/net config_ppp0=( 'ppp' ) # Runs /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/pppd.sh # The name of the Ethernet interface over which PPPoE links link_ppp0='nas0' # Must correspond to the -c option of the br2684ctl utility plugins_ppp0=( pppoe ) # 'man pppd' shows other options. Compression is disabled because it is # rarely taken advantage of, and may interfere with the connection. # Add option 'usepeerdns' to populate /etc/resolv.conf pppd_ppp0=( updetach noauth debug defaultroute usepeerdns persist) username_ppp0='ptn' # E.g. 'fredbloggs@hg5.btclick.com' password_ppp0='ptn' # ADSL password, assigned by your ISP # If the kernel modules are not built-in, then they must be loaded # before starting the PPP daemon: function preup() { if [[ "$1" = "ppp0" ]] ; then modprobe -q speedtch # The number after "-c" corresponds with the Ethernet interface, # e.g. 0 for nas0. # Use "-e 0" for LLC mux or "-e 1" for VC mux. # The 2 numbers after "-a" represent the VPI & VCI of your ISP, and # they are separated by a dot. Choose here, or ask your ISP: # http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/faq/index.html#q12 eval local nasifname=\$\{link_$1\} start-stop-daemon --start --background --pidfile /var/run/${nasifname}.pid --make-pidfile \ --exec /sbin/br2684ctl -- -c ${nasifname#nas} -e 0 -a 0.35 return 0 fi } function postdown() { if [[ "$1" = "ppp0" ]] ; then eval local nasifname=\$\{link_$1\} start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/${nasifname}.pid return 0 fi }
OK, you used the old way to set PPPoE over Speedtouch. Please try to set the connection as explained in the updated README file of the speedtouch-usb package. If it doesn't work, check nas0 status by running: /etc/init.d/net.nas0 status
Thanks, now it works!!! Sorry! But after upgrade I have another small problem (see bug 149385)
