Description b52 2004-07-09 01:40:12 UTC
Hi,
the problem is that my isp cuts my connection every 24 hours and i have to connect again with a new ip. Until now this was not a problem with mldonkey, i got a down rate of nearly 0 for 2-5 minutes but then everything was alright.
With mldonkey-2.5.16-r4 this feature is gone, hours after changing my ip i get no downstream. After i stop mldonkey wait some time and start it again i get normal up and down streams.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge mldonkey
2.produce traffic with mldonkey
3.take interface down and up with a new ip


Actual Results:  
lost connection

Expected Results:  
share/get some things :)

could you please let me know if this problem is still happening with mldonkey-2.5.16-r7?

Hi,
i got the problem that i'm not able to reproduce this bug. Befor i posted this bug i was reproducing it several times, strange.
The only thing where i could give a statement is that the established connections and closing ones are "not normal" :) (sorry) after an ip change. Let me explain: I use cacti to visualize my established and closing connections. Normaly are the closing ones at avg. 100 and the established at the avg. 200 connections, but after changing my ip its really mixed up and my downstream decreases. After restarting mldonkey it get back to normal.
Sorry thats all i can figure out at the moment.
Comment 3 Jon Hood (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-13 08:24:02 UTC
I reset my connection a few times to see if everything was fine, and even tried to change my IP address once, and mldonkey was able to connect fine. I don't know why you were having this error, but you do seem to have a very non-optimal way of running mldonkey. If you get any more information about all this, let me know and feel free to reopen this bug.
