Anyone else suffering a stalling network? It works fine for a little while, it the stalls for a while and then works for a while. It makes for a very bad browser experience. I've disabled IPV6 through Yast as i believe that having IPV6 running can cause performance issues but this does not seem to cure it.
YES! I started a long thread on this a month or so ago, and we never really got anywhere - I assumed it was my ISP since it seemed to be only me that was having the problem. I stopped chasing it down though, as the 11.2 release seems to have fixed it... it didn't seem worth spending more time on the problem.

I don't think its the ISP as my other box is still 11.1 and its fine. There are a few posts around the net with solutions that require editting files but they are written for the benefit of those in the know of the internals. e.g i tried the suggestion "sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1" and got this response "/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6: No such file or directory" Then it says "To disable IPv6 permanently add a line to /etc/sysctl.conf: net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1" But as i got the error to the previous "sysctl" suggestion, i didn't see the point of trying it (maybe i should have). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
