I've got a small home network (3 Macs: 2 running OS X, 1 Gentoo) which goes through a D-Link DI-604 router setup to use DHCP. For some reason, sometimes when I try to access the Internet with the Powerbook running Gentoo the router will crash and have to restart itself. When I look at the router's log, it tells me:

Right after those lines, or somewhere in that time, it restarts itself. I'm a newbie to all of this, so if I'm not saying things right, sorry.

Any ideas as to why my router crashes so much since using Gentoo?

/etc/hostname:
Code:
powerbook


/etc/hosts:
Code:
127.0.0.1     localhost

I forgot to mention that it seems to happen most of the time when I try to use Konqueror. Emerge doesn't seem to hiccup that much, but does sometimes. FTP is also more stable.

I'm still having these problems and can't figure it out. It's frustrating when the whole network goes down. Can anyone help?

I have the same router and have boxes running Gentoo and Windows. I have a Gentoo server handling DHCP and DNS, but I had the router doing that before I had the Gentoo server.

I'm suprised that the router needs to be reset.

The only thing I can recommend is a change to /etc/hosts
Code:
127.0.0.1         powerbook         powerbook.localhost          localhost

Sorry for the slow response. Been busy the last couple days.

When I change my /etc/hosts file to what you recommended and restart net.eth0, I get this error message:

SIOCADDRT: File Exists
* Failed to bring eth0 up


What is SIOCADDRT?
