It is similar, with a difference that /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart doesn't help. I tried enlarging timeout but with no help. > > As a note: WinXP machines do not have any such problem.

I noticed that in most cases after I boot to windows, when I reboot back to linux I can't connect. When I reboot back to windows, net is up. When it fails I noticed that it send DHCP requests, but doesn't get a response. I tried dhclient, dhcpd and pump, and the results are allways the same. It happens in the evenings, when internet traffic is high. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
