Hi.
At 15:22 on 8 Mar 00, Francesco begun to yabber about "[SLE] network delay"
From: Francesco
Can anyone explain why after booting (which I do frequently as use a laptop) an immediate ifconfig ensures me that eth0 is up and running yet I have to wait several minutes before I can even ping the router downstairs. More to the point how do I prevent this delay?
When you first try to ping and are unsucsessfull.. Have a look at the stats in ifconfig and see if you are getting any input or output errors on the card.. That can give you a good idea of any problems with your physical hardware. Cya Matthew Matthew King: Network Engineer, Cable & Wireless Optus. My ICQ#: 2342475 Message me!
