Hi I have had a squidbox running on NTL for a while now, using a dialup account. I have recently had a cable modem installed with NTL, but if connect it to a 2nd ethernet card in the linuxbox, after a while it will just look the machine up. Cant even change consoles (if thast what its called CTRL+ALT F1-F4 etc) AT first I thought it was a HD problem, but after installing to a new HD it does the same.
