hi, i’ having this problem:
I’ve installed opensuse 11, then I made a adsl conection that, after a while, it goes down. Sometimes, I just left my computer for 2 minutes and then puffff… no more conection.
Through kinternet registry i could see this every time it goes down:

My adsl service is Speedy (from Argentina) with dynamic ip, and it works perfectly in other OS.
I really don’t know where to start my search, i tried changing kde3.5 to kde4; i removed the conection and made it again; I re-installed the hole system… and still the problem :S
It’s like a random timeout… because it’s never the same time…
Do you have any ideas? Do you need more information?
