Hi to all,

I have some problem to connect using adsl. I configured all parameters but I have any change to connect at boot time. Even if I use adsl-start it dosn't connect. The stange thing is I'm able to connect if I use DEBUG=1 adsl-start.

Does anyone know the reason?
Thank's

Max

What's the error-message? How are you connected?

Hi,

there is no error message, it simple doesn't connect. Im connected by ethernet-adsl (rp-pppoe) . In the net configuration I set for the interface = "up"

I tried adsl-setup, but after I couldn't connect so I configured it manually.
Now i still doesn't work:
pressing adsl-start it exits directly without message, on the other side it connects using the debug parameter

This is some kind of weird. Is there any output in /var/log/messages related to adsl?
Dont' know anything about a debug manager...
It's even more strange that there is no output on error...

in /var/log/messages I got only the following message:

gateway adsl-connect: ADSL connection lost; attempting re-connect

that's the only information I have

In case I use "DEBUG=1 adsl-start" instead of "adsl-start" it connects correctly logging the message in /var/log/message:
